1. Quenching Process
- Heating temperature: 850–900°C, holding time 1.5–2 minutes/mm (controlled atmosphere furnace to prevent decarburization).
- Cooling method: Oil quenching (cooling rate ≥80°C/s) to obtain martensitic structure (HRC 50+).
- After quenching, Metal Nuts And Bolts must be cleaned immediately to ensure uniform tempering.

2. Tempering Process
- Temperature: 600–650°C (600°C for strength, 650°C for improved toughness).
- Cooling method: Air cooling to avoid secondary stress.
- Final properties: Tensile strength ≥860 MPa, hardness HRC 22–30, meeting the long-term service requirements of Metal Nuts And Bolts.

2. Quenching + Tempering (Hardening and Tempering)
- Quenching (850–880°C oil quenching) + tempering (550–600°C), hardness HB 248–302, ensuring 10–15% lower hardness than bolts to prevent thread galling.
