Technical Specifications
Product Overview
Metallurgical Characteristics
NM400 HiTemp features a martensitic microstructure with fine carbide precipitation, achieved through MetalZenith's controlled quenching and tempering process. The steel's unique composition with optimized carbon, manganese, and chromium content provides exceptional wear resistance while maintaining structural integrity at elevated temperatures up to 400°C.
Heat Treatment Process
MetalZenith employs a sophisticated heat treatment cycle consisting of austenitization at 900-950°C, followed by controlled water quenching and tempering at 200-250°C. This process ensures optimal hardness distribution and stress relief while maintaining the steel's high-temperature stability. Our computer-controlled furnaces guarantee consistent thermal processing with precise temperature monitoring.
Manufacturing Process
Production begins with electric arc furnace melting using premium raw materials, followed by secondary refining through ladle furnace and vacuum degassing. The steel undergoes continuous casting and controlled rolling to achieve optimal grain structure. MetalZenith's advanced rolling mill technology ensures uniform thickness and superior surface quality throughout the production process.
Quality Standards & Testing
Every batch undergoes comprehensive testing including chemical analysis via optical emission spectroscopy, mechanical property verification through tensile and impact testing, and hardness mapping across the entire surface. High-temperature performance validation ensures reliable service at elevated temperatures. MetalZenith maintains ISO 9001:2015 certification and provides full material traceability documentation.
Welding & Fabrication Guidelines
NM400 HiTemp requires preheating to 150-200°C for welding operations. Recommended electrodes include low-hydrogen types with matching strength characteristics. Post-weld stress relief at 200°C helps maintain optimal properties in heat-affected zones. MetalZenith provides detailed fabrication guidelines and technical support for optimal processing results.
