Forging

Forging temperature should be carried out between 900℃-1200℃,The lower the forging-ending temperature ,the finer the grain size .Hold the temperature till uniform before forge,minimum forging temperature 850°C,so don’t forge below 850℃.1.7225 steel should be cooled as slowly as possible in still air or in sand after forged.

Normalizing

Normalizing is used to refine the structure of forgings that might have cooled non-uniformly after forged,and considered as a conditioning treatment before final heat treatment.Normalizing temperature for 1.7225 steel should be carried out between 870℃-900℃. hold suitable time for the steel to be thoroughly heated to  complete the ferrite to austenite transformation.Cool in still air.

Annealing

After Forged,1.7225 steel may be annealed .Annealing temperature should be carried out between 800℃-850℃, hold suitable time for the steel to be thoroughly heated. Cool slowly in the furnace.This treatment will form a structure suitable for machining.The maximum Hardness is 241 HB.

Hardening

This heat treatment will obtain martensite structure  after quenched.It should be carried out between 840℃-875℃, hold suitable time for the steel to be thoroughly heated, soak for 10-15 minutes per 25 mm section, and quench in oil, water, or polymer as required.Tempering should be followed  immediately after quenched.

Tempering

Tempering is usually carried out to relieve stresses from the hardening process, but primarily to obtain the required  hardness and mechanical properties. The actual tempering temperature will be chosen to meet the required properties.Heat the 1.7225 carefully to a suitable temperature ,usually between 550℃-700℃, soak at the temperature for 2 hours per 25mm of ruling section, then cool in air.Tempering between 250℃-375℃ is not avoided as tempering within this range will seriously reduce the impact value,result in temper brittleness .

Application

1.7225 steel finds many applications as forgings for the aerospace,oil and gas,automotive, agricultural and defense industries etc.
Typical applications for 4140 steel uses include:forged gears,spindles,fixtures,jigs,collars,Axles,conveyor parts,crow bars,logging parts,shafts,sprockets,studs,pinions,pump shafts, rams, and ring gears etc
