Introducing the characteristics of steels suitable for nitriding, such as chromium-molybdenum steel and stainless steel.
Steel suitable for nitriding includes "nitrided steel," as well as "chromium-molybdenum steel," "stainless steel," and "die steel." Each type of steel has its own suitable nitriding treatment conditions, and the differences in conditions lead to different applications. 【Features】 ◎ Chromium-molybdenum steel (SCM), nickel-chromium-molybdenum steel (SNCM) ■ Nitriding treatment conditions are almost the same as those for nitrided steel ■ The hardness distribution of the nitrided layer is looser than that of nitrided steel and reaches the hardness of the base material ■ Very little thermal deformation ■ Often used for gears because high hardness is not required *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information
【Other Features】 ◎ Stainless Steel (SUS), Heat-Resistant Steel (SUH) ■ Requires special nitriding treatment technology compared to nitrided steel ■ To prevent peeling when thickening the nitrided layer, a thickness of 0.05 to 0.2 mm is appropriate ◎ Die Steel (SKD) ■ Since the tempering temperature is the same, the hardness of the base material does not decrease significantly even after nitriding ■ The surface becomes very hard, improving wear resistance ■ In molds and similar applications, the lifespan can be extended by more than five times *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
