Abstract

The effects of heat treatment process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of H13 steel were studied by means of hardness and metallographic experiments and defects analyzing. The results show that the hardness of H13 steel may reach the optimum use range(48~52 HRC) after quenching at 1 050℃×200 s, then cooling in warm water (50~60℃) and tempering at 560~600℃for 2h .After secondary tempering on the condition of the same tempering process, this material may obtain more homogeneous and stable microstructure and proper hardness.
