Gas Carburising Heat Treatment - Metal Treatment Services
Gas Carburising Description:
Gas Carburising is a case hardening process in which carbon (introduced by carbon rich gas atmosphere) is dissolved at the surface of a steel component to produce upon quenching a hardened surface layer to a required depth.
Component suitability:
Gears, Shafts, levers
Advantages of Gas Carburising:
Produces a hard wearing surface while maintaining a core strength (depending on the material).
Parts may be selectively carburised on certain surfaces by applying a protective coating to non carburised surfaces.
|
Typical materials:
EN36A, 8620 and other designated case hardening alloyed steel.
Gas Carburising Furnace types available
Sealed quenched furnaces, rotary retort furnaces.
Possible limitations.
Distortion of component could be expected and a grinding allowance may be necessary.
