Forged Part Heat Treatment Process
Depending on the steel grade and process requirements, forgings commonly undergo the following heat treatment methods: annealing, normalizing, tempering, quenching followed by low-temperature tempering, and quenching combined with aging. Next, let’s take a closer look at how each of these processes is carried out:

Introduction to Heat Treatment Processes
Procedure: Heat the steel part to a temperature 30–50 degrees above Ac3, or 30–50 degrees above Ac1, or below Ac1 (refer to relevant materials for specific temperatures). Then, typically allow it to cool slowly along with the furnace temperature.

Heat Treatment Process Required for Chains
A chain is a mechanical component that is frequently subjected to wear and tensile forces, so it needs to possess both high hardness and high toughness. Quenching is an important heat treatment process that can significantly increase the surface hardness of a chain, thereby enhancing its wear resistance and tensile strength. The specific operational procedure for quenching involves heating the chain to the quenching temperature and then rapidly cooling it—typically using water or oil. Due to the temperature difference between the surface and the interior of the chain during quenching, the surface of the chain develops a highly hardened microstructure after quenching, while the interior retains a certain degree of toughness.
