INDUCTION HEAT TREATING STEEL A Guide to the Heat Treating Process Some of our customers send their products to outside heat treaters for induction heat treating hardening and tempering The heat treater then sends back the heat treated parts and the manufacturing cycle continues
Heat Treatment Guide A guide for understanding how different alloying elements influence steel hardness after quenching and tempering
Stainless steels are heat treated based on the stainless steel type and the target end item requirements Heat treatment methods such as stress relieving hardening and annealing strengthen the ductility and corrosion resistance properties of the metal that is modified during fabrication or generate hard structures capable of tolerating abrasion and high mechanical stresses
Some steel materials do come with some retained austenite in their structure due to previous heat treatment they undergo After the post weld heat treatment the retained austenite can change to martensite like structure that is brittle
