Thanks for the comments@metenger -Total no of bolts were 900 and the size was 5/8" ,for that reason to achieve the temperature evenly for all the parts we hold for 1 hour.@TVP-if we perform solution treatment on bars and head forming after that normally the head portion will be in strained...
Hi ,We have tried some solution annealing of 316 forged bolts to meet the requirements as per ASTM A193 B8M CL.1. Observed hardness before solution treatment was 38HRC .Parts has heated to 1050Deg for 1 hour and water cooled.Hardness has dropped to 125HBW after treatment. We will perform a...
