Quick Review of Basic Metallurgy
Problem: (a) ICHT – Coarsens, but does not fully dissolve, precipitates; “pinning”
effect is lost and “new” martensite has reduced high temperature
strength (strength drops to level of Grade 9)
Solution: (a) Impose Upper Temperature Limit On Tempering And PWHT To Avoid
ICHT And Overtempering
b) Review Minimum Tempering Limits
c) Prohibit Localized Heat Treatments If Temperature Exceeds AC1

Task Group Action
• Normalizing of Grades 91, 911, 23, 92, and 122: 1900-1975°F
• PWHT of Grades 91, 911, 23, 92, and 122: <1/2” 1325-1470°F
>1/2” 1350-1470°F
• Note: For DMWs, if the Chromium content of the filler material < 3%, or if
the filler material is an austenitic or nickel based material, then the minimum
tempering temperature remains 1300°F.
