Heat Treatment of 31CrMoV9

For steel 1.8519, the heat treatment involves several steps to optimize its mechanical properties.

  • Initially, it undergoes soft annealing between 680°C and 720°C, allowing for slow cooling to achieve a specific hardness.
  • Hardening is performed at higher temperatures, between 840°C and 880°C, utilizing oil or water for quenching.
  • The tempering process follows, conducted between 570°C and 680°C, with air cooling to adjust the steel’s hardness and strength.
  • Finally, stress relieving is recommended after mechanical processing to mitigate residual stress, recommended within a specific temperature range.

Application of 31CrMoV9

31CrMoV9 finds its application in areas requiring high strength and endurance against wear and fatigue. Common applications include:

  • Automotive components
  • Gear and engine parts
  • High-strength bolts and fasteners
  • Components for the oil and gas industry
