Can stainless steel screws be heat treated?

Can stainless steel screws be heat treated?

Answer:

That is, all the metal materials are heat treatment, but some materials cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, all materials can be carried out to stress annealing and recrystallization annealing, stress relief annealing, recrystallization annealing is also included in the heat treatment process, also belongs to the heat treatment.
The key is to look at is the kind of stainless steel stainless steel screws, stainless steel consists of ferrite stainless steel, austenitic stainless steel, martensitic stainless steel, precipitation hardening stainless steel, if the former is two kinds, namely ferrite stainless steel and austenitic stainless steel screws are generally not strengthened by heat treatment, after two kinds of martensitic stainless steel, precipitation hardening stainless steel can be strengthened by heat treatment.
