Ferritic Nitrocarburizing

Nitrocarburizing is often an alternative to carburizing or carbonitriding. A very important advantage is that nitrocarburizing is a “low temperature method.” By low temperature here is meant a temperature below the one where phase transformation to austenite starts, and high temperature is above the said temperature. The valuable consequence is much less distortion of treated parts, which eliminates grinding and therefore shortens the production cycle. This process also gives unique improvements in corrosion resistance and adhesive wear, which cannot be obtained by carburizing or carbonitriding.
