Hot Forming 

Forging: 1100 to 900, slowing cooling in furnace.


Heat Treatment of Hot Work Steel H21 / 1.2581

Annealing: 750 to 800, slow cooling in furnace (10-20/hr), down to approx. 600, cooling in air. Hardness after annealing: max. 240 HB.

Stress relieving: 600 to 650, slow cooling in furnace. Hold in neutral atmosphere for 1 to 2hours.

Hardening: 1070 to 1150, oil, salt bath 500 to 550, air. Hold 15 to 30 minutes. Hardness, 48 to 52 HRC, in oil or salt bath; 44 to 48 HRC in air.

Tempering: 550 to 700. Slowly heating to tempering temperature right after hardening. Recommended to temper 2 or 3 times to increase toughness.
