The inclusions have a different chemical composition and give the steel different mechanical properties. These inclusions affect several properties of steel. In order to understand how the inclusions will affect the steel properties, the electrolytic extraction of 3D investigate method is applied on the steel grade of 42CrMo4. Then follow with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) observation. Steel samples from both ingot and rolling with and without heat treatment are observed and compared with different ratios. The result shown that, heat treatment can be applied for removing carbides successfully. And most inclusions are belonging to Type RS which is rod like MnS. The percentage of broken particles can be up to 80%, which means that the reason for the inclusions broken should be find. And heat treatment can affect the characteristics of elongated MnS.
