| 0.63 | 1.10 | 0.40 | 5.30 | 1.20 | 0.30 |
Delivery condition
Annealed
Hardness (HB) max. 240
Annealing
Temperature 800 to 850 °C | 1,472 to 1,562 °F Slow controlled cooling in furnace at a rate of 50 to 68°F/hr (10 to 20°C/hr) down to approx. 600°C, further cooling in air.
Stress relieving
Temperature 650 °C | 1,202 °F Slow cooling in furnace; intended to relieve stresses set up by extensive machining, or in complex shapes. After through heating, hold in neutral atmosphere for 1 to 2 hours.
Hardening and Tempering
Temperature 980 to 1,020 °C | 1,796 to 1,868 °F Oil, salt bath from 842 to 932°F (450 to 500°C), air (small sizes only) Holding time after temperature equalization: 15 to 30 minutes. Obtainable hardness: approx. 62 HRc
