Heat Treatment Process for Racing Steel Plates
Typical heat treatment process for racing steel plates (mostly used for clutch plates, brake steel plates, and transmission steel plates):
Precision Forging / RollingEnsures uniform internal microstructure and high dimensional accuracy.
QuenchingRapidly heated to the austenitizing temperature followed by rapid cooling to obtain high-hardness martensite, thus improving strength and wear resistance.
High-Temperature TemperingEliminates internal stress caused by quenching, balances hardness and toughness, prevents brittle fracture, and ensures no softening at high temperatures.
Stress Relief AnnealingStabilizes dimensions and prevents deformation and warping under high-speed and high-temperature service conditions.
Quenching & Tempering (QT Treatment)Comprehensively improves strength, hardness and fatigue life, adapting to continuous high-load operation.
