Like other high-sulphur free machining grades 430F has much reduced resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion compared to its non-free machining equivalent.
HEAT TREATMENT:-
Solution Annealing – Heat to 815-845°C, hold for ½ hour per 25mm of thickness, slow furnace cool to 600°C and then quickly air cool. Slow cooling from 540-400°C will cause embrittlement.
Sub-Critical anneal – Heat to 760-815°C and then air cool or water quench.
This grade is not hardenable by thermal treatment.
