Traditional hardening practices may give rise to distortion and poor dimensional control, because of metallurgical phase changes when rapidly quenching from high treatment temperatures. During Nitrotec treatment these changes do not occur, therefore allowing the treatment of close-tolerance precision parts, especially thin section components.
This means that we are able to treat long, thin and narrow pistons and cylinders successfully with NItrotec - so the hydraulic industry makes wide use of our services to deliver high value, long lasting parts on their equipment..
