Can 16Mn grade III forgings be quenched and tempered?

2021-08-14View Original

Thread Content

According to HG/T 20615-2009, the flanges and flange covers with DN450-600 dimensions are made of 16MnⅢ material, and it is specified that quenching and tempering should be applied. Is it permissible to use quenching and tempering for 16MnⅢ, which is a low-carbon alloy?

16Mn is a low-alloy steel, not a low-carbon steel

I believe the specification you mentioned is from 2009. The 16Mn series has since been renamed to the Q345 series. Let’s see what the new specification says

Could you please let me know the source? Why not?

Did you mean to change 16MnR to Q345R? Or was it the pipe fittings of type 6479, where 16Mn was changed to Q345? Mine is a forged piece
