Abstract
As hard coatings become more commonly used for improving the wear resi stance of cutting tools, it is of interest to know whether fatigue res istance is impaired. Fatigue cracking may be a significant failure mod e in bandsaws, which are flexed over the driving pulleys. A reversed b ending machine was used for testing specimens of bandsaw strip. It was found that fatigue strength was raised by titanium nitride coating bu t was reduced by chromium electroplating.
