Heat Treatment
Hardening: Increasing the hardness requires heating to an austenitizing temperature (1550-1600 F/840-870 C) followed by a quenching operation. (Some oxidation/ decarburization will occur on the block surface unless heating is performed in a vacuum or protective atmosphere furnace.) Quenching is a high stress operation introducing a risk of cracking, particularly for a machined block with contours, sharp edges, drilled holes or thin-web features. For such product, employing a quenchant with a lower quenchseverity rating will lower the risk of cracking.
Tempering: See the diagram.
Diagram note: No data
