PROCESSING
S1 can be worked as follows :
- Machining( grinding, turning, milling)
- Polishing
- Hot forming
- Electrical discharge machining
- Welding(special procedure incl. pre-heating & filler
materials of base material composition)
GRINDING
During Grinding, local heating of the surface, which can alter the temper, must be avoided. Grinding wheel manufacturers can provide advise on the choice of grinding wheels
SURFACE TREATMENT
The Steel Grade is a perfect substrate material for PVD coating. If nitriding is requested, a small diffusion zone is recommended but avoid compound and oxidized layers.
DELIVERY HARDNESS
- » Typical soft annealed hardness is 230 HB
