Why Plasma Nitriding?
Plasma Nitriding will virtually eliminate part distortion or size change while providing these Metallurgical advantages: • Extremely high surface hardness and thus excellent wear-resistance. • Reduced friction.. the lowest coefficient of friction between two steels • Tensile strength and resistance to fatigue are increased as much as 20% – to 45 % • Excellent surface finish non-porous and abrasion resistant. • Much improved resistance too corrosion for most metals • No distortion through processing. • Plasma nitriding is available at temperatures as low as 750F and up to and over 1000F.
