Which outcome occurs when hammer forging exceeds material temper?

💡 Explanation

Surface cracks happen because exceeding the material’s temper during forging initiates the mechanism of work hardening. Therefore, surface embrittlement causes cracking, rather than the metal deforming gracefully or recrystallizing, due to excessive energy input and localized stress concentrations beyond material yield.
