Gas Nitrocarburizing Heat Treatment
Gas nitrocarburizing is an advanced surface hardening treatment that enhances the surface layer of industrial components by introducing a controlled combination of nitrogen and carbon. This process results in a wear-resistant coating with a white layer thickness of up to 20 microns, improving the component's fatigue strength and wear resistance.
One of the key benefits of the gas nitrocarburizing process is its ability to increase surface hardness, making it ideal for applications that demand high durability and corrosion resistance. By undergoing this heat treatment service in India, manufacturers can extend the service life of their metal components, reducing friction and improving overall performance.
Steel Grades for Gas Nitrocarburizing
The gas nitrocarburizing process is suitable for various high-performance steel grades, including:
42CrMo4
EN19
EN24
Applications of Gas Nitrocarburizing
This surface hardening treatment is widely used across multiple industries, particularly in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing sectors. Common industrial applications include:
Gears and pinion shafts – Ensures enhanced wear resistance for high-load transmission components.
Valve components – Improves corrosion resistance and extends service life in harsh environments.
Dies and tooling – Enhances surface hardness, reducing friction and increasing durability in machining applications.
By incorporating gas nitrocarburizing heat treatment, industries can significantly improve the wear-resistant coatings of their critical components, ensuring long-lasting durability and enhanced operational efficiency.
