PROPRIETARY Carpenter 636 Heat Treatments
- Heat to 1350/1420°F (732/777°C), 4 hours at heat, furnace or air cool. Resulting hardness Rockwell C 21/25. Structure will be tempered martensite. The alloy can also be isothermally annealed by treating as follows: Heat to 1900°F (1038°C), cool to 1275°F (690°C), hold 24/48 hours, air cool. Hardness will be Rockwell B 90/95. Structure will be alpha ferrite plus carbide. When an isothermal anneal has been employed, the alloy must be rehardened - 1900/1950°F (1038/1066°C) - and tempered to develop best mechanical properties. Hardening: Heat to 1900°F (1038°C), oil quench. Hardness Rockwell C45/50. Avoid numerous rehardening treatments in an open atmosphere. Decarburization will occur which can result in cracking. For intricate stapes, marquench to 650°F (343°C) and air cool. The alloy should never be air cooled to the Ms temperature and quenched. Severe cracking can result. During hardening, ensure that the part has cooled to a temperature below the Mf temperature before tempering. Complete transformation to martensite is necessary to prevent nonuniform structures and hardness after tempering
