Abstract
It is established that steel 06G2FB with the ferrite-bainite structure tends to strain aging to a noticeable extent. Development of strain aging is accompanied by a signif-icant growth of the strength, a marked decrease in uniform relative elongation, speed of deformation hardening and increase in the temperature of the ductile-brittle transition.
