Benefits of Heat Treatment
Heat treatment is a process that enhances the physical and mechanical properties of metal, making it stronger, more durable, and resistant to corrosion.
- Improves hardness and wear resistance
- Increases tensile strength and ductility
- Enhances toughness and impact resistance
- Reduces friction and improves sliding properties
There are several types of heat treatment, including:
- Tempering
- Hardening
- Softening
- Alloying
