How do you guys heat treat 1075? I have heard many, many different ways to do it and I'm thoroughly confused.
The 10XX series steels in this carbon range are really as simple as Dennis pointed out. In fact you also have decalescence to work with as well as the magnet, and once the decalescence shadow is gone you can just quench. Iron carbide (all there is in these steels) dissolves very quickly.
