What are the Mechanical Properties of 1.8159 (51CrV4) Spring Steel?
For very mixed shaped tools and cold forming tools, it is recommended that the hardening temperature be close to the minimum limit. Hardening temperatures between 820-860 °C are given according to heat treatment in a salt bath. If heat treatment is done in a vacuum, the curing temperature should be 10-30 °C lower.

Special Information
For very mixed-shaped tools and cold-forming tools, it is recommended that the hardening temperature be close to the lower limit. The above curing temperatures are given according to heat treatment in salt bath. If heat treatment is done in vacuum, the curing temperature should be 10 - 30 °C lower.
