1.4021 stainless steel Heat treatment:
After hot working, 1.4021 stainless steel usually needs to be heat treated to obtain the required mechanical properties.
Quenching: Heating to 950-1050°C and then rapidly cooling (usually water or oil cooling) to obtain a martensitic structure.
Tempering: Tempering is carried out after quenching, and the tempering temperature is usually 600-750°C. The purpose of tempering is to reduce hardness, increase toughness and reduce brittleness.
1.4021 stainless steel Application areas:
including the manufacture of various precision machinery, bearings, electrical equipment, instruments, meters, turbine blades, springs, cutting tools, nozzles, valve seats, valve bearings, medical equipment, etc. that are resistant to corrosion by the atmosphere, water vapor, water and oxidizing acids.
