Quality Carbonitriding Process

Our carbonitriding heat treatment is one of the many quality heat treating processes offered by General Metal Heat Treating. Carbonitriding is a metal heat treating process that combines carburizing and nitriding. It is typically used to increase the surface hardness of small metal components by producing a wear-resistant case, and is best used when shallow case depths are required. If you’re looking for a cost-effective heat treatment method for mass produced parts or inexpensive steel, carbonitriding heat treatment is a great solution!

Types of applications of carbonitriding heat treatment include:

• pistons
• gears
• rollers and bearings
• shafts
• levers

… and more!

Depending on your specific needs, carbonitriding has some advantages over other heat treatment options like carburizing. Its greater resistance to softening during tempering and increased impact strength make carbonitriding an ideal process for inexpensive, mass produced components. Because of its typical applications and uses, carbonitriding tends to be more economical than carburizing.
