Heat Treatment Process
Hardening: Heat the steel evenly to 850-880°C until the whole section reaches temperature. Then quench in oil to cool.
Annealing: Heat the steel to 680-720°C, hold it well at temperature, and then let it cool slowly inside the furnace.
Tempering: Tempering temperature 400°C
Application Fields
Suitable for medium and high-stress components in the automotive industry and mechanical engineering, such as shafts, connecting rods, crankshafts, screws, etc.
