Heat Treatment of Alloy Steels is one of a series of courses giving underlying knowledge for heat treatment. This course extends earlier general courses on basic metallurgy and heat treatment to alloy steels. Topics include a comparison of iron and steel, alloy steel basics, alloy steel treatments, and special considerations including processing under Nadcap. 

Learning Objectives 

By the end of this training, you will be able to: 

• Demonstrate a basic understanding of heat treatment of steels. 
• Explain the difference between iron and steel. 
• Describe the effects of heat treatment on common alloys. 
• Describe Nadcap requirements for heat treatment of alloy steels. 
• Explain soak time, quenching, and distortion and cracking. 
• Apply the understanding to the units on stainless steels and on diffusion processes. 

Who Should Attend 

Any person who is actively involved with or associated with alloy steels will benefit from this course. Participants must have knowledge of Basic Metallurgy of Heat Treatments and Basic Heat Treatment.
