Annealing

Heat slowly to 680-710°C, soak well. Cool slowly in the furnace.

Hardening

Heat the component slowly to 820-870°C and allow it to be heated through. Quench in oil or water.

Tempering

Temper immediately after quenching whilst tools are still hand warm. Re-heat to the tempering temperature then soak for one hour per 25 millimetre of total thickness (2 hours minimum) Cool in air.
