A low temperature heat
treatment, that produces
outstanding wear resistance. corrosion resistance and fatigue properties
while maintaining dimensional requirements with little or no distortion.
Often replacing the more expensive processes of hard chrome or nickel
plating, Salt Bath Nitriding gives better corrosion protection equivalent or lower costs.
Salt Bath Nitriding, often
referred to by its generic name of Salt Ferritic Nitrocarburizing or its
trade name Melonite® has been
specified and applied to a wide variety of automobile engine and
transmission components. Salt Bath Nitriding is commonly used as an
alternative to high temperature conventional heat treatments such as
carburizing and carbonitriding.
