Heat Treatment For DIN 1.3247 HSS

• Annealing

DIN 1.3247 HSS is supplied in the annealed condition.While annealing is usually performed after hot working,such as hot forging, hot rolling.

The annealing temperature of DIN 1.3247 is generally between 860-880°C.Heat the temperature to 860-880°C at a rate of no more than 220°C per hour.Hold at the temperature for one hour per inch of thickness(at least two hours).

According to the cooling method, it is divided into softening annealing and isothermal annealing.

For isothermal annealing,it should be cooled to 740-760°C first, then kept for 2-4h, and then cooled to 500-600°C for slow cooling.Hardness below 269HBW.

For Softenig annealing,it should be cooled to 500-600°C at 20-30°C/h and then furnace cooled.Hardness below 285HBW.

• Hardening & Tempering For 1.3247 HSS

1.Hardening in a vacuum or atmosphere furnace, or in a properly rectified salt bath is recommended.

2.Pre heat thoroughly to 820-870°C, transfer to the high temperature salt bath or furnace.

3.Heat to the final hardening temperature of 1160-1180°C in salt, or 1180-1190°C in atmosphere or vacuum furnaces，quench without further soaking into salt at 540-595°C or warm oil,then complete the quench in air.

4.Tempering must be done immediately after quenching.

5.Heat thoroughly and uniformly to the tempering temperature of 550-570°C.

6.Hold at the temperature for at least two hours (one hour per inch of the total thickness).

7.Tempering with four times are strongly recommended for1 DIN 1.3247/HS2-9-1-8 high speed steel.

8.Hardness above 66HRC.
