A Comparison of Nitriding/Nitrocarburizing Versus Carburizing Nitriding and nitrocarburizing hold many advantages that make them prime choices to produce high-quality gears. Some manufacturers might prefer carburizing as a case hardening method, especially for high-volume production, but nitriding and nitrocarburizing can often create more resistant and cost-efficient gears. Each application or gear requires a specific heat
