What does Q&T mean in Construction?

Quench and Temper

Induction quench and temper (Q&T)has now become firmly established practice, particularly in applications that require precise, fast, flexible and repeatable heat treatment of tubular and bar material. A process in successful use for heat treatment of bar material for many years, induction quench and temper has recently been extended to cover tubular products. The new processes developed include technologies for pipes with upset ends, creating special demands on the induction heating processes used.
