According to the abnormal fracture phenomenon of 87MnSi steel wire rod for bridge cable, the evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties during production processing were systematically analyzed. The results show that the microstructure of the rod is composed of pearlite and a small amount of proeutectoid ferrite, and the cementite lamellae are randomly distributed. After cold drawing, the cementite lamellae are rotated or fibrotic, and some cementite are broken and dissolved, the dissolution amount is 1.40wt.%(9.69%). After ho-dip galvanizing, the dissolved cementite is spheroidized. In the process of cold drawing, hot-dip galvanizing and stabilization treatment, the microhardness of wire rod (329.8HV) increases (450.2HV) firstly, then decreases (447.9HV) and increases (474.8HV) finally. The cementite dissolved in the cold drawing process increases the hardness of the steel wire to 468.3HV, while the spheroidized cementite in the hot galvanizing process decreases the hardness to 439.8HV, and deteriorates tensile property. When the degree of spheroidization of cementite on the edge is obvious, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the steel wire inside and outside are greatly different, and the fracture is eventually caused by uneven force during stabilizing treatment.

Different cooling rate has great influence on the mechanical properties and microstructure of 55SiCr spring steel after rolling.During the phase change and transition,the 55SiCr spring steel wire is treated with different cooling rate,and take sample to test the mechanical properties and microstructure.Results show that with the increase of the cooling rate of the high temperature section,the tensile strength of the samples increased gradually,the reduction of area increased first and then decreased,the depth of the decarburization layer decreased gradually.When the cooling rate increases rapidly,it is easy to produce abnormal martensite,causing brittle fracture.Therefore,the cooling process of the 55SiCr spring steel wire after rolling,cooling fast to 690 C or so at the appropriate cooling rate,and then into the heat holding cover,completing phase change,get excellent performance,small decarburization depth and high sorbite rate microstructure spring steel wire rod.
