To Redpicker: My mention "Puting to oil at 1055 for 30 min" had mistake - it should be 155F @30 min. Sorry for that.
Approacing the 1480F was unfortunatelly uncontrolled. Your suggestion regarding to use horizontal mounting and putting platen separaters is much appreciated. We will try.

Need help urgently.We have 4130 disc OD21"xID13"x.109"THK distortion after heat treatment to approach HRC35-40. It was probably result of thermostress differences between ID and OD areas. How to releave thermostress and provide again smooth hardening?
