PROPRIETARY BE3343 Heat Treatments


  • Soft annealing in protective atmosphere at 850 - 900°C (1560 - 1650°F) for 3 h, slow cooling 10°C (50°F) per h down to 700°C (1290°F), air cooling.
    Stress relieving at 600 - 700°C (1110 - 1290°F) for ~ 2 h, slow cooling down to 500°C (930°F).
    Hardening in protective atmosphere with pre-heating in 2 steps at 450 - 500°C (840 - 930°F) and 850 - 900С (1560 - 1650°F) and austenitizing at a temperature suitable for chosen working hardness and quenching in oil, salt bath or vacuum.
    Tempering: 2 tempers at 560°C (1040°F) are recommended with at least 1 h holding each time.
