Heat Treatment
- Annealing (A): 1050–1100°C, rapid cooling (water/air) for stress relief.
- Quenching & Tempering (QT):
- Quench: 1100–1150°C → water
- Temper: 700–750°C → air (for improved toughness)
- Solution Treatment (HT): 1150–1200°C → rapid cool (for max corrosion resistance).
Processing Performance
- Machining: Use carbide tools, low speeds, and high feeds.
- Welding:
- Recommended methods: TIG, MIG, SAW.
- Filler metals: ЭИ680-compatible rods (e.g., ЦТ-15).
- Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT): Stress relief at 850–900°C.
