The temperature of an annealing furnace can vary significantly depending on the specific material being annealed.
Annealing is typically carried out at temperatures ranging from 300°C to 1100°C (572°F to 2012°F).
5 Key Temperatures Explained
1. Subcritical Annealing for Steels
For the annealing of steels, subcritical annealing takes place at temperatures between 538°C and 649°C (1000°F and 1200°F).
2. Intermediate Annealing for Steels
Intermediate annealing is carried out at temperatures between 649°C and 760°C (1200°F and 1400°F).
3. Full Annealing for Steels
Full annealing involves temperatures between 816°C and 927°C (1500°F and 1700°F).
4. Bright Annealing for Stainless Steel Tubes
For stainless steel tubes, the bright annealing process typically requires a temperature of 1050 degrees Celsius (1922°F).
5. Batch Furnaces for Various Applications
Different types of annealing heat treatment furnaces are used for different applications. Batch furnaces, which are commonly used for annealing, can reach temperatures between 1200℉ and 2500℉ and can heat all metals within 24" wide.
Overall, the temperature of the annealing furnace depends on the specific material and the desired outcome of the annealing process.
