Metallurgy of Carbon Steel Heat Treating Webinar

About the Webinar

Join Michael Pfeifer, Ph.D., P.E. from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm EST, as he covers topics on annealing, normalizing, and through hardening heat treatments that are used to obtain specific strength and hardness. Understanding the effects of the process conditions of these heat treatments is important to get the strength and hardness you need in your steel.

What You Will Learn

In this pre-recorded webinar you will learn about:

• Iron-carbon phase diagram
• Annealing, normalizing, and through hardening processes and how they are used to modify the microstructure of steels to obtain specific strength and hardness.
• Effects of heat treating process parameters and steel composition on steel microstructure and strength.
• Effects of tempering temperature and time on steel microstructure, strength, and hardness.
• Hardenability and effects of alloy composition on hardenability.

The last 15 minutes of the webinar will be for Q&A.

Registering for the Webinar

The fee is $99 per person. After registering you will receive an email within a few hours with information about how to access the webinar. In addition to the webinar, you'll get 7-day access to a recording of the webinar.
