Characteristics

Chrome-manganese-molybdenum steel for hardening in air with good hardenability and good firmness during the heat. It is well-workable during the heat and well-workable in the soft-annealed state.

Suitability

Tools for hot working such as inter-inserts and heat-stressed auxiliary tools.

Heat treatment of steel W.Nr. 1.2311

WayTemperature [°C]Procedure
Forging850-1100Cool slowly in dry ash or thick cross-sections in the furnace
Soft annealing720-750Warm few hours (according to the size of object), mostly four hours are enough and cool slowly in the furnace
Annealing to lower tension600-650Warm 1 to 2 hours and cool slowly in the furnace
Hardening840-870Cool in oil or in air at 180 up to 220 °C
Tempering500-650Cool in air, the degree of tempering is set by hardness and toughness of instrument according to the tempering chart
