About the heat treatment characteristics of high-performance stainless steel "Silicoloy".
Introducing the heat treatment of the precipitated hardening silicone alloy! We will solve issues related to the processing process.
Precipitation hardened stainless steel achieves high hardness through relatively low-temperature heat treatment, resulting in fewer issues such as distortion, cracking, and oxidation scale attachment compared to quenched steel. This contributes to the simplification of the processing process and shorter delivery times. Precipitation hardened silicon alloy features minimal dimensional changes during aging heat treatment and surface modification processes at temperatures below 500°C. Silicon alloy resolves processing process issues.
