Heat treatment Related

  • Annealing of S1 Tool steel

Slowly heated to 800-810 ℃(1472-1490℃) and allow enough times, let the steel to be thoroughly heated, Then cool slowly in the furnace. The S1 tool  steel will get MAX 250 HB (Brinell hardness).

  • Hardening of S1 tool steel

S1 steels should be Pre-heated uniformly to 650°C (1202°F) until completely heated through. If needed, the steels can be preheated at  900 to 950°C (1652 to 1742°F). About 30 min/per 25 mm of ruling section is to be provided and then the steels should be immediately quenched in oil.

  • Tempering of S1 tool steel

Tempering of S1 steels is performed at the preferred tempering temperature followed by holding for an hour , Soak well at the selected temperature and soak for at least one hour per 25mm of total thickness.

Temperature [℃]    150    200       250       350         400

Hardness [HRc]    58-56   56-54    55-53    53-51        52-49
