Frequently asked questions

What is nitriding?

Nitriding is a surface hardening treatment that diffuses nitrogen into the surface of steel to raise hardness and wear resistance, without quenching.

What are the benefits of nitriding?

High surface hardness, better wear and fatigue resistance, and low distortion because the process runs at a moderate temperature.

What is the difference between nitriding and nitrocarburizing?

Nitriding diffuses mainly nitrogen; nitrocarburizing adds carbon, which changes the compound layer and suits different steel grades.

Which steels can be nitrided?

Mainly alloy steels containing nitride-forming elements such as chromium, aluminum and molybdenum, which produce a stable hard layer.

What equipment is used for nitriding?

Controlled-atmosphere furnaces that supply nitrogen and hold temperature precisely.
