Quenched/ Tempered Steel

Information on Quenched/ Tempered Steel

Quenched and tempered (QT) steel is a high-strength structural steel used across various industries, achieved through a meticulous heat treatment process. This process involves rapid cooling from a high temperature, typically using water or oil, resulting in a hardened state. Following this, the steel undergoes tempering, where it is reheated to a lower temperature and maintained for a precise period, enhancing its toughness while reducing brittleness. QT steel offers an exceptional blend of strength, ductility, and toughness, making it ideal for heavy machinery, construction materials, and structural components. Customisable through specific quenching and tempering parameters, QT steel stands as a versatile and resilient material for demanding applications.
