Hardening and tempering
Hardening
The art of hardening is to give a heat treatment to steel products with the aim of improving the mechanical properties of these products. with name the compressive strength and wear resistance. This result is achieved by changing the structure of steel.
Breeding is the heat treatment of steel products with the aim of increasing tensile strength while retaining toughness. This treatment is a combination of hardening and subsequent high tempering.
Commonly used materials are: C45, 42CrMo4, 34CrNiMo6, St52.3, etc.
