It has often been stated in many text books, lectures and metallurgical schools that one must temper as soon as the quenched steel is at “hand warmth” or at approximately 150

City gas is a generic name for the heating gas that is supplied to us via pipeline to the factory facility. Not all city gas is created equal.

This is a continuation of last Friday’s blog. First AidKeep a simple first-aid cabinet and be sure that everyone who will use it knows how to use it. It would

The heat-treatment shop is the facility in a steel-processing or a manufacturing facility that relies on its own heat-treatment plant to service its components.

Once again we face the contentious issue of “burnout” on atmosphere furnaces.

Distortion during any heat-treatment procedure is a problem that will occur, but it is not necessarily the fault of the heat treater.

As far back as 1943, F.E. Harris developed a formula for the calculation of time in relation to temperature for the depth of carbon penetration into steel during the carburizing process.

Question: I would like to find out what should be the brazing powder and cycle required to braze a SS 316 honeycomb onto ASTM A516 Grade-70 base material. Is there

The rate of diffusion of carbon into steel while in the austenite phase is concerned with carbon in solid solution in austenite.

The principles of laser surface heat treatment are in essence the same principles of metallurgy that are applied to traditional steel thermal phase transformation.
