15 DVD Set

 

Price $ 2351

 

Description 

 

This course teaches the actual heat treating process (the "hows" of heat treating) as compared to ASM’s Heat Treatment of Steel

and Principles of Heat Treating courses, which cover the fundamental metallurgical knowledge of what happens when metals

are heated and cooled (the"whys" of heat treating). This practical course is a natural follow-up to the more fundamental courses.
