Abstract
In order to remove or decrease fine granular sulfides of Mn, Cr, Mo, etc. (Mn—S, Cr—S, Mo—S, etc.) left on a machined workpiece surface of sulfur free-cutting alloy steel without affecting the form and dimensional accuracy thereof, there is provided a method for treating the sulfur free-cutting alloy steel which comprises a soaking process of the machined workpiece in a solvent and an ultrasonic cleaning process by applying ultrasonic waves of 1.0 to 2.0 W/cm2 in watt density at a frequency of 40 KHz or a multi frequency in the solvent.
