B.S. L 169 Heat Treatments
- Ingots shall be supplied as cast. The castings shall be heat treated as follows: Solution treat at temperature of 540 +/- 5°C for not less than 10h. Quench in water or in a polymer quenchant at a temperature not greater than 30°C. Artificially age at a temperature in the range 155°C to 165°C for not less than 2h. The temperature selected shall be maintained within a tolerance of +/- 5°C. Cool in the air. Where a polymer quenchant has been used, the nature of the quenchant shall be defined on the certificate of conformity for the castings.
