| Application areas | In heat-treated, hardened condition (up to 69 HRC), Ferro-Titanit® can be used to solve many wear problems economically. | |
| Corrosion properties | Because of its high chromium and reduced carbon content, this grade is recommended in cases requiring elevated corrosion resistance. | |
| General machinability | In as-delivered condition, this material can be machined by conventional methods. | |
| Heat Treatment | Soft annealing: 750°C, 10 hr (Cooling in furnace) Hardness: 51 HRC - Stress-relief-annealing: 600-650°C (cooling in Furnace) - Hardening: 1080°C and quenching in vacuum (1 bar N2) - Temepering 180°C (Hardness:67 HRC) | |
