16
Q

What is solution heat treatment?

A

Heat alloy with alloying elements, quench

17
Q

What is precipitation heat treatment?

A

Soft when removed from quench but gain hardness over time, cooling at room temp

18
Q

What is natural ageing?

A

Cooling at room temp

19
Q

What is artificial hardening?

A

Taking quenched alloy heating again

20
Q

What is annealing?

A

Softens metal and decreases internal stress, heated then cooled slowly

21
Q

What are the 4 temper designations? (T)

A

T = alloy that had solution heat treatment
T3 = solution heat treated then stain hardened
T4 = solution heat treated then naturally aged
T5 = solution heat treated then artificially aged

22
Q

Why do we use reheat treatment?

A

Previously heat treated but is heat treated again to gain certain characteristics

23
Q

How many reheat treatments are clad materials limited to?

A

3

24
Q

How are non heat treatable alloys changed?

A

. Cold work
. Cold rolling
. Strain hardening
. Rolling, drawing, pressing

25
Q

What are the 3 hardness designations? (H)

A

H1 = strain hardened without thermal
H2 = strain hardened and annealed
H3 = strain hardened and stabilised by low temps

26
Q

In hardness designations what does FOH mean?

A

F = as fabricated
O = annealed
H = strain hardened
