Conclusions
-
1.
Martensitic stainless steel Kh12NMFB (ÉP609) with good weldability is intended for machine parts and apparatus for prolonged operation at temperatures up to 600°.
-
2.
Two heat treatments have been developed for steel Kh12NMFB-hardening from 1000–1050° and tempering at 650° (σb ≥ 90 kgf/mm2) hardening from 1000–1050° and tempering at 550° (σb ≥ 110 kgf/mm2) — for parts not welded.
-
3.
The mechanical properties of welded joints made by argon-arc welding are approximately equal to those of the base metal.
-
4.
The steel has good technological properties and can be used for deep drawing, has good weldability, and is not susceptible to cracking in welded apparatus of complex configuration.
