NM500 Heat Treatment Instructions

Solution Treatment: Heat to 1050-1100°C, hold, then rapidly cool (usually in water).
Aging Treatment: Heat at 200-500°C for an extended period.
Quenching: Heat to 900-1000°C, then rapidly cool.
Tempering: Reheat quenched steel to 200-600°C, then cool.
Normalizing: Heat to 850-950°C, then air cool.
Annealing: Heat to 700-800°C, hold, then slowly cool.

NM500 Surface Finish

Surface Hardening: Includes flame and induction hardening.
Carburizing: Heat in a carbon-rich environment at high temperature.
Nitriding: Heat in a nitrogen or ammonia atmosphere.
Carbonitriding: Similar to carburizing but with nitrogen addition.
Electroplating: Electrochemically deposit a metal layer (e.g., chromium, nickel).
Thermal Spraying: Apply a high-hardness, wear-resistant coating.

Custom surface treatment requirements can be accommodated upon request.
