The tempering method is a process of heating and cooling which is used to strengthen and improve the toughness of metals such as steel. During this process, the metal is first heated to a high temperature and then cooled rapidly, which makes it brittle. The brittle metal is then heated again to a lower temperature and cooled at a slower rate, which reduces the brittleness and increases its strength and elasticity. This process is commonly used in the manufacturing of steel tools and automotive parts.
