Free membership registrationGas soft nitriding treatment is a heat treatment that forms carbonitrides on the surface by diffusing nitrogen and carbon through heating and holding in a mixed atmosphere. It features not only wear resistance but also less distortion compared to quenching, with surface hardness equivalent to that achieved during quenching, and a faster finishing time. By hardening relatively inexpensive materials, it is also possible to achieve the same hardness as more expensive materials. Additionally, while the basic finishing characteristics such as hardness do not change between "salt bath soft nitriding" and "gas soft nitriding," gas soft nitriding results in a cleaner appearance after treatment, leading to fewer processing steps and quicker completion. Products that are currently treated with salt bath nitriding should also be considered for gas soft nitriding. 【Features】 ■ High wear resistance and corrosion resistance ■ Effective for products with strict dimensional accuracy, minimizing distortion ■ Adopts a retort outer cooling method to reduce stress on the product ■ Minimal nitriding unevenness, resulting in a beautiful (silver-gray) finish ■ Suitable for sliding components, wear-resistant parts, and resin molds We can accommodate requests for one-off or small-lot heat treatments for prototypes and development. For more details, please refer to the materials available for download in the [PDF Download] section or feel free to contact us.

Free membership registrationEven for shafts and similar components that are prone to distortion, warping, and deformation, precise heat treatment is possible through Meinetsu's years of expertise and the latest processing method, "gas soft nitriding." "Gas soft nitriding" is a heat treatment that maintains a temperature range of 550 to 600°C in a mixed atmosphere of carburizing gas and NH3 (ammonia), allowing nitrogen and carbon to diffuse into the surface to form carbonitrides, thereby achieving surface hardening. Additionally, because it operates within a temperature range that does not cause changes in the metal structure, it results in a treatment that is less prone to deformation and dimensional changes. This method is actively adopted for sliding parts, wear-resistant components, and resin molds. 【Features】 ■ Strong improvement in wear resistance and corrosion resistance ■ Effective in suppressing distortion, suitable for products with strict dimensional accuracy ■ Adopts retort peripheral cooling method to reduce load on products ■ Minimal nitriding unevenness, resulting in a beautiful (silver-gray) finish ■ Capable of handling sizes up to Φ600mm×1000mm

Free membership registration"Salt bath heat treatment" is a heat treatment method where a salt bath made primarily from potassium chloride and sodium chloride is heated to high temperatures, and products are immersed in it for quenching and tempering. Compared to conventional gas methods, it offers a uniform finish with minimal distortion, and because the treatment is conducted in an open furnace, it can accommodate a wide range of products from mass-produced items to single pieces. At Meinetsu, the focus is primarily on neutral salt bath quenching and carburizing quenching, but we are considering expanding to include high-speed steel (HSS) quenching. This method is suitable for carburizing quenching and tempering of automotive parts, as well as salt bath quenching and tempering (submerging quenching) for springs, flat springs, and mold tooling. 【Features】 ■ Uniform finish with minimal distortion ■ Carburizing quenching possible from 0.1mm to 1.0mm ■ Wide compatibility from mass-produced items to single pieces ■ Treatment conducted in an open furnace, unlike batch furnaces
