AGE/ PRECIPITATION HARDENING

Age or Precipitation Hardening (also Aging) is a change in material properties (generally hardening)

AUSTENITIZING

Austenitizing is a process designed to induce the formation of austenite on the alloy.

CARBON RESTORATION

In the event that in a heat-treating operation the components suffered from decarburization (loss of carbon content) of the surfac

CARBONITRIDING

It is a thermal process of simultaneously diffusing both carbon and nitrogen into ferrous alloys under partial pressure.

CONVENTIONAL ANNEALING

The main purpose of Annealing is to soften the metal.

CONVENTIONAL CARBONITRIDING

Carbonitriding is a process similar to carburizing whereby ammonia is added to the carburizing atmosphere

CONVENTIONAL CARBURIZING

Carburizing is a process of controlled diffusion of carbon into the surface of a component

CONVENTIONAL HARDENING / QUENCHING

Hardening is one of the oldest metallurgical processes known to man, originally in the form of heating a sword in the fire and then throwing it into the lake to make it harder.

CONVENTIONAL QUENCH & TEMPER

Quenching and tempering are the most fundamental heat treatments available

CONVENTIONAL TEMPERING

Tempering is almost always required after hardening (both in an atmosphere furnace as well as in vacuum, as described further)

CRYOGENIC TREATMENT / FREEZING

After a successful quench and temper, it is frequently desirable to subject the work piece to a cryogenic treatment

GAS NITRIDING NITREG®

NITREG® is a modern heat-treating process, capable of meeting the metallurgical requirements of all nitriding specifications

GAS NITRIDING OF STAINLESS STEELS NITREG®-S

SS materials to Stainless Steels

GAS NITRIDING TITANIUM NITREG®-TI

Titanium alloys, used mostly in the aerospace and defense industries, can also be successfully gas nitrided for increased wear resistance

Protected: GAS NITRIDING TITANIUM NITREG®-TI (Copy)

Titanium alloys, used mostly in the aerospace and defense industries, can also be successfully gas nitrided for increased wear resistance

GAS NITROCARBURIZING NITREG®-C

Nitreg®-C is based on the proven Nitreg® potential-controlled nitriding technology, whose ability to control processes and produce the desired properties
