Dear Mr.Sameer
Is it for Tableting punches . 58 Hrc means ,the tempering temperature is may be at 230 °C.
Mr. Sameer I will suggest you , if it is for tableting punches it is better to go for CrN or Boron carbide.
Go for a coaters where they have a fine tune in temperature control.since it is a OHNS material it may have contraction or elongation if temp overshoots during coating process.
