Heat treatment

• Solution treatment
• Water Quench
• Age depending on properties required and the size of the parts.
• The over-aged T74 and T76 conditions are the most common and are defined in standard NF EN 515.
• Closed-die forgings can be stress relieved between solution treatment and aging.
• T7452 and T7652 stress relieved by compression before T74 over-aging, and T7454 and T7654 achieved by further
cold closed-die forging, are the most common conditions. These are defined in Standard NF EN 515.
