[0002] A reasonable heat treatment system is essential for round steel for pumping rods. It can not only optimize the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of steel, improve fatigue resistance and toughness, but also control internal defects, improve processing performance, ensure product consistency and stability, and thus meet the strict requirements of the oil extraction industry. The oil well environment often contains corrosive media such as brine, hydrogen sulfide, etc. Through proper heat treatment, a dense surface layer or uniform internal structure can be formed to improve the corrosion resistance of round steel and ensure the long-term stability of pumping rods in harsh environments. Through the study of the phase transition point of 25CrMoA round steel for pumping rods, it is found that the heat treatment austenitization temperature of round steel for pumping rods should be controlled at 865℃-900℃, and the holding time should be 50-70min; water with a higher cooling rate is selected as the quenching medium to obtain high strength and good toughness. The tempering temperature should be controlled at 470-530℃, and the tempering holding time should be 120-150min. The quenching temperature, tempering temperature and holding time all have an impact on the performance of the material. The heat treatment process of the round steel for the sucker rod of the present invention determines a set of heat treatment systems that can ensure the stable performance of the steel by studying the heat treatment heating system, including the effects of the quenching temperature, tempering temperature and holding time on the organization and performance.

This patent introduces a heat treatment process for 25CrMoA round steel for sucker rods, including quenching and tempering steps. By controlling the temperature and holding time, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the round steel are improved.

[0064]
[0065] It can be seen from the above embodiments and comparative examples that: (1) Compared with comparative example 1, each embodiment prolongs the tempering holding time, so that the austenite grains grow fully, so that the material achieves a good balance between strength and toughness. The appropriate increase in tempering temperature also further enhances the toughness and plasticity of the material, so that the elongation and impact toughness far exceed the performance of comparative example 1. (2) Compared with comparative example 2, the quenching temperature of each embodiment is moderately reduced to prevent excessive grain growth and significantly improve the ductility and impact toughness of the material. The tempering temperature is appropriately reduced and controlled within a reasonable range to ensure the high strength and good plasticity of the material. This optimization treatment overcomes the damage to strength and toughness caused by excessive temperature and achieves excellent comprehensive performance. (3) Compared with comparative example 3, each embodiment significantly improves the strength of the material by using water quenching instead of oil quenching. The appropriate extension of tempering time also further improves plasticity and toughness, so that the comprehensive performance of the material far exceeds that of comparative example 3. (4) Compared with comparative example 3, each embodiment prolongs the quenching heating holding time to 50-70 minutes to ensure complete transformation of austenite and improve the strength and toughness of the material. The tempering and holding time is increased to 120-150 minutes to ensure that the internal stress of the material is fully released, further improving the ductility and impact toughness.
[0066] The heat treatment system of the present invention has the following advantages: (1) In the embodiment, by extending the holding time of quenching and tempering, the yield strength, tensile strength and elongation of the material are significantly higher than those of the comparative example, which proves that the optimization of the holding time plays a key role in the strength and plasticity of the material; (2) Compared with the comparative example, the embodiment adopts a moderate tempering temperature and an extended holding time, and the impact toughness of the material is greatly improved, indicating that reasonable control of the tempering temperature and time is helpful to improve the impact resistance of the material under harsh conditions; (3) The embodiment shows better material uniformity, while the comparative example has incomplete internal stress release due to insufficient holding time, resulting in poor cleanliness. This shows that extending the holding time helps to purify inclusions in steel, thereby improving the long-term stability of the material.

Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should all fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
