Advanced quench and temper facility for high quality bar and tube
The increasingly demanding market for hardened steel bars and heavy tubes for OCTG and industrial applications requires the development of more efficient quench and temper processes. TimkenSteel partnered with the SMS group to develop an advanced facility of this kind. A significant research effort was undertaken to expand the original concept of tangential water spraying with the aim of a performance increase and to make it suitable for effectively treating large bars. The paper covers the genesis, realization and initial performance of the TimkenSteel AQTF Line at the Gambrinus Steel Plant, Canton, Ohio.
