Tygra & Kremen
Kremen
Hey, I’ve been chewing over this old crankshaft. Think it could double as a solid shield for a transport. Want to see if it’s tough enough for the front lines?
Tygra
Sure, let’s check its thickness and metal composition. We need to make sure it can hold up against impact and not bend under pressure. If it passes, we can slot it into the front armor.
Kremen
I’ll grab the calipers and measure the bore. If it’s a low‑grade alloy, the magnetic test will pull it off. If the hardness check comes up above 55 HRC, it can stand a hit. Then we’ll line it up with the frame and give it a quick spin to see if it flexes. If it stays flat, we’ll bolt it in front. Otherwise, we keep looking.
Tygra
Sounds solid. Let me know the numbers and we’ll decide if it’s worth the risk. Keep your safety gear on.
Kremen
Thickness 12 mm, hardness 57 HRC, alloy 4340. Good. Keep the gloves on.
Tygra
12 mm, 57 HRC, 4340 – that’s a tough piece. We can slot it in front, just keep the gloves on and bolt it tight. Let me know when you’re ready to test it.
Kremen
Ready. Grab the hammer, line it up, and we’ll give it a quick blow. No more fluff.
