(a) ICHT Coarsens, but does not fully dissolve, precipitates; pinning
effect is lost and new martensite has reduced high temperature
strength (strength drops to level of Grade 9)
b) Overtempering Precipitates are coarsened, lath structure is destroyed,
rupture strength drops to Grade 9 level
c) Undertempering More rapid recovery, brittle structure, SCC
susceptibility

Note: For DMWs, if the Chromium content of the filler material < 3%, or if
the filler material is an austenitic or nickel based material, then the minimum
tempering temperature remains 1300F.
