HYDROGEN ANNEALING TREATMENT FOR STEEL

Steel hydrogen annealing is a treatment of steel where it is heated to and held at a specific temperature followed by a controlled cooling process. Steel Hydrogen Annealing is a heat treatment process to remove hydrogen, carbon, sulphur, and other impurities. This process also prevents hydrogen embrittlement.

Steel hydrogen annealing softens metals and simultaneously changes the properties of the metal, improving:

• machinability
• facilitation of cold-work
• mechanical and electrical properties
• stability of dimensions

Worthington Steel's hydrogen annealing steel treatments are regarded as among the best in the steel industry.
