PROPRIETARY RV-2379 Heat Treatments
- Austenitization:
- Heating from room temperature to 500°C (during 2 hours)
- Hold for homogenization at 500°C for 2 hours
- Heating from room temperature to 850°C (during 2 hours)
- Hold for homogenization at 850°C for 2 hours
- Heating to temperature of austenitization 1020-1080°C
- Hold at austenitization temperature for 20 minutes minimum
- Cool down in oil or salt bath at 500°C, nitrogen or inert gas
- Air cooling is not recommendable for very big parts
- At any case, the decarburized layer should be removed
Tempering:
- Tempering cycles should be carried out immediately after the hardening, when the piece has cooled down to room temperature
- Select the tempering cycle temperature according to the desired hardness
- Holding time recommendation: 2.5 minutes for every millimetre of thickness, with a minimum holding time of 1 hour
- A second tempering cycle is recommended to improve mechanical properties
Cryogenic treatment: In order to ensure maximum dimensional stability after the heat treatment, and considering the allowance variations in the piece during its utilization, along with improving mechanical properties, such as hardness, toughness, fatigue resistance, etc., it can be recommendable to perform a cryogenic treatment at -70°C or -200°C , with a holding time of 1 hour, to improve maximum transformation of residual austenite. After the cryogenic treatment, once the piece is at room temperature, a tempering cycle has to be applied at a minimum temperature of 480°C. This procedure should be followed to recover tools with low hardness due to an excess of retained austenite, caused by an excessive quench temperature
