What is Heat Treating & Annealing?

Heat treating involves heating and cooling metals to alter their physical and sometimes chemical properties, while annealing specifically refers to the process of heating and then slowly cooling to relieve stresses.

Benefits:

• Strength: Increases hardness and strength of materials.
• Ductility: Improves workability and reduces brittleness.
• Stability: Helps in achieving uniform properties throughout the material.

Applications:

Used in manufacturing tools, automotive parts, and structural components.
