PROPRIETARY Uddeholm Orvar Superior Heat Treatments
- Unless otherwise is indicated all specimens were hardened 30 minutes at 1025°C, quenched in air and tempered 2 + 2 h at 610°C. The hardness were 45 ± 1 HRC;
Soft annealing: Protect the steel and heat through to 850°C. Then cool in the furnace at 10°C per hour to 650°C, then freely in air;
Stress relieving: After rough machining the tool should be heated through to 650°C, holding time 2 hr. Cool slowly to 500°C, then freely in air;
Hardening: Pre-heating temperature: 600-850°C, normally in two pre-heating steps. Austenitizing temperature: 1020-1050°C, normally 1020-1030°C (At 1025°C - Soaking time: 30 min, Hardness before tempering: 53 ± 2 HRC; At 1050°C - Soaking time: 15 min, Hardness before tempering: 54 ± 2 HRC);
Quenching media: High speed gas/circulating atmosphere, Vacuum (high speed gas with sufficient positive pressure). An interrupted quench is recommended where distortion control and quench cracking are a concern, Martempering bath or fluidized bed at 450-550°C , then cool in air, Martempering bath or fluidized bed at approx. 180-220°C then cool in air, Warm oil;
Tempering: Choose the tempering temperature according to the hardness required by reference to the tempering graph. Temper minimum twice with intermediate cooling to room temperature. Lowest tempering temperature 250°C. Holding time at temperature minimum 2h. Tempering in the range of 425-550°C for the intended final hardness will result in a lower toughness.
