Solar Atmospheres’ “Low Torr Vacuum Carburizing” results in optimum case hardening. Minimized distortion is attained through gas quenching and precise temperature controls.
Vacuum carburizing provides a superior case integrity by preventing microstructure surface intergranular oxidation (IGO) and decarburization. Additionally, the process produces compressive residual stress for improved fatigue life.
Vacuum carburizing extends wear life for gears with excellent case depth uniformity, including gear to pitch ratios. Plus, the parts are bright and clean after processing.
