Abstract
Providing an iron and steel material having quenched surface part, avoiding oxidation of a compound layer formed on the surface of the iron and steel material due to quenching, its production method, and an induction-quenched component. A quenched iron and steel materialcomprises an iron and steel material, a compound layerformed on the iron and steel material, and an antioxidant cover layerformed on the compound layer. The iron and steel materialhas a hardened layer having a given depth, and the surface of the iron and steel materialhas enhanced hardness. A method for producing the iron and steel materialcomprises a first step for forming the antioxidant cover layerto cover the compound layerformed on the iron and steel material, and a second step for applying induction hardening to the iron and steel materialhaving the compound layerand the antioxidant cover layer, with the temperature increased in a given heating time until the given heating temperature is reached, and with cooling immediately performed once the heating temperature is reached.
