Reduction in area as measured in tension tests was found to be a good parameter in determining fatigue life. Holdtimes in tension of 1 h or less did not affect the fatigue life but one of 5 h reduced it. An atmosphere containing iodine reduces the fatigue life under the conditions tested by 40 percent.
