Conclusions
-
1.
Thermomechanical treatment promoting solution of coarse carbides and refinement of the original austenitic grains makes it possible to increase the service properties of 07Kh16N6 steel.
-
2.
To obtain high strength and fracture resistance the following treatment is recommended for 07Kh16N6 steel: harden from 1100°C; isothermally forge at 850 and 800°C; cold treat at a temperature below −70°C; temper at 425°C.
