Purpose: The paper presents evaluation of effect annealing on structure and mechanical properties of ledeburitic cast steel. The paper presents evaluation of influence of grain normalization and the inclination to precipitate the hypereutectoid cementite in Widmannstätten structure in G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel. Design/methodology/approach: The heat treatment has been planned on the basis of CCT diagram prepared for that alloy cast steel. Four temperatures of heat refining have been applied. Basic research of G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel included metallographic analysis and mechanical properties (hardness and impact strength tests). Findings: The evaluation has been carried out for four annealing temperatures, i.e. 850 degrees centigrade, 900 degrees centigrade, 950 degrees centigrade and 1050 degrees centigrade. The test material has been G200CrMoNi4-6-3 hypereutectoid cast steel. At all annealing temperatures in the structure of cast steel the precipitation of hypereutectoid cementite along grain boundaries of former austenite took place. At the temperature of 850 degrees centigrade one may observe the coagulated hypereutectoid cementite precipitates inside of primary grains of austenite. Whereas beginning from the temperature of 900 degrees centigrade the cementite in G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel forms distinct "subgrains" inside of primary grains of austenite. Research limitations/implications: The annealing for four temperature and the new heat treatment of G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel. Practical implications: G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel of ledeburite class is used mainly for rolls production. Any data related to the structure and mechanical properties of that cast steel are precious for the manufacturers and users of the mill rolls. Originality/value: The new heat treatment (annealing) of G200CrMoNi4-6-3 cast steel.
