PROPRIETARY Micro-Melt 23 Alloy Heat Treatments


  • Annealing: heat slowly to 849/899°C (1560/1650°F), hold until the entire mass is heated through, and cool slowly (do not exceed 11°C [20°F] per hour) in the furnace to about 699°C (1290°F), after which the cooling rate may be increased. The annealed hardness should be maximum BHN 260 (HRC 26).
    Hardening: preheat at 449/499°C (840°F/930°F), transfer to a second preheat at 849/899°C (1560/1650°F). Austenitize at 1093/1190°C (2000/2175°F), depending upon final hardness/toughness combination desired. When hardening in vacuum, the austenitizing temperature should be raised approximately 11/14°C (20/25°F) above that used for a salt bath. For oil quenching, an interrupted quench is recommended. Parts should be oil quenched to approximately 538°C (1000°F), removed from the bath, and air cooled. Similarly, parts may be quenched into a salt bath held at 538°C (1000°F), equalized, and air cooled. Vacuum furnaces with positive pressure quench capability can also be used. Parts should be allowed to cool to below 66°C (150°F) prior to tempering.
    Stress Relieving: to relieve the stresses of machining, heat slowly to 599/699°C (1110/1290°F), hold 2 hours, furnace cool to about 500°C (930°F), then cool in still air. Tempering: the tempering temperature may be varied according to the desired hardness, but is usually in the range 538/579°C (1000/1075°F).
