Popis: The paper presents the results of numerical and experimental investigations of hardness distribution in specimens of a cutting tool steel body upon induction hardening in media that essentially differ in cooling properties. The heating conditions for the tool body were chosen the same as in the case of induction brazing of a hardmetal insert to a tool body with subsequent hardening. The hardness calculations for various zones of the specimen axial section agree well with the experimental data, thus demonstrating the adequacy of the numerical procedure.
