Normalizing Heat Treatment Process

Why?
Normalizing is used to return the steel back to a normal condition, it will reduce the stresses that may have built up in the material due to machining or forging.

Process?
A piece of steel is normalized by heating the steel to a point hardening temperature and allowing the part to cool in air at room temperature.

Benefits?
A normalized piece of steel will have significantly reduced stresses in the material.
