Anneal heat treating
Average annealing and hardening temperatures are:
| Carbon, % | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.5 | 0.7 | 0.9 to 1.3 |
| Avg.temp. °C | 910 | 860 | 830 | 810 | 770 | 760 |
The purpose of anneal heat treating may involve one or more of the following aims:
To soften the steel and to improve machinability.
To relieve internal stresses induced by some previous treatment (rolling, forging, uneven cooling).
To remove coarseness of grain.The treatment is applied to forgings, cold-worked sheets and wire, and castings.
The operation consists of:
heating the steel to a certain temperature, "soaking" at this temperature for a time sufficient to allow the necessary changes to occur, cooling at a predetermined rate.
BEBON STEEL can provide these grades.If you need these kind of steel,please be free to contact with us!
