Determining Condition of Age-Hardenable Alloys

There is a lot of confusion about the condition that age-hardenable materials, such as 17-4 or 718 are in. Are they annealed, solution annealed, or aged; and how can you tell?
Age-hardenable materials are heat treated to a particular sequence:
Understanding High-Temperature Distortion of Metals

Understanding High-Temperature Distortion of Metals When metals are subjected to high temperatures, they undergo expansion. The extent of expansion is measured in terms of the coefficient of thermal expansion. This physical property is frequently cited for various engineering materials. In the thermal processing industry, neglecting thermal expansion is a leading cause of failure of thermal […]
