PROPRIETARY HG 2379 Heat Treatments
- Forging:
Heat the tool steel slowly and uniformly to 700°C then more rapidly to 900-1040°C. After forging cool down slowly
Annealing:
To anneal, heat slowly and uniformly to 900°C. Soak for three to four hours and allow to cool in the furnace to room temperature. Re-heat to 800-1040°C and again soak for three to four hours. Allow to cool in the furnace to room temperature.
Stress Relieving:
When heavily machined, ground or otherwise subject to cold work, stress relieving will be beneficial prior to hardening. Heat the component carefully to 600-650°C, Soak well and cool in the furnace or in air. The tools may then be finish machined before hardening.
Hardening:
Pre heat the tool steel component to 750-800°C. and allow to soak at this temperature. The tool temperature should then be brought up to 1000-1030°C for air cooling, or 980°C for oil quenching. Soak thoroughly at the temperature for thirty minutes per 25mm of ruling section, then cool or quench accordingly. It is important not to exceed 1020°C when heating for hardening.
Tempering:
Double tempering of is recommended. Heat slowly and uniformly, soak for at least sixty minutes. The second tempering should be a repetition of the first.
