Forging Technique
| Heat Temperature | Start Forging Temperature | Finish Forging Temperature | Cooling Method |
| Slowly heat to 800ºC,then quickly heat to final forging temperature | 1160-1200ºC | >=850ºC | Ash coolinor sand cooling,with timely annealing |
Annealing
840 to 870°C
Slow controlled cooling in furnace at a rate of 10 to 20°C/hr down to approx. 600°C, further cooling in air. Hardness after annealing: max. 229 HB.
Stress relieving
Approx. 650°C
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 - 2 hours.
Hardening
1000 to 1050°C / Oil, air
Holding time after temperature equalization: 15 to 30 minutes.
Obtainable hardness: 53-56 HRC
Tempering
100 to 200°C (212 to 392°F)
Slow heating to tempering temperature immediately after hardening / time in furnace
1 hour for each 20 mm of work piece thickness but at least 2 hours / cooling in air.
For average hardness figures to be obtained please refer to the tempering chart.
