Regaining surface finishing after hardening stainless steel
Hi!
My name is Daniel and I work at a mechanical workshop in Norway.
We are going to machine some stainless steel parts that will require hardening afterwards.
The parts are going to be hardened in an oven at 600 degrees celcius for 4 hours and then air cooled. This procedure is given in the suppliers data sheet.
Because i'm new in the game of hardening stainless steel, I wonder how the surface finish will turn out? And -if it turns out bad, how can we regain it? I was thinking about treating it with some kind of acid, but i don't know if it will work.
Best Regards
Daniel
