The treatment can be carried out in gas (gas nitro-carburization), in a salt bath (salt bath nitro-carburization) or in plasma (plasma nitro-carburization).

The surface of the nozzle insert is nitrocarburized.

Thermochemical heat treatment through nitrocarburising 2.

Nitrocarburizing belongs to the thermochemical processes.

Nitrocarburizing is a shallow case variation of the nitriding process.

This eliminates the two steps and related switching apparatus of ferritic nitrocarburizing.

Methods of improving the durability of a machine part comprising ferritic nitrocarburizing and shot peening are disclosed.

Nitrocarburizing is a variation of the nitriding process.

A nitrocarburization treatment for steel components, such as steel balls or ball bearings is disclosed.

When carbon is added along with the nitrogen, the process is called nitrocarburizing.

If a carbon spending gas is added, the process is called gas nitrocarburising.

This may be by nitriding, ferritic nitrocarburising or ion nitriding.

The valve seat insert may be surface treated by a variety of methods including ferritic nitrocarburizing.

Depending on the wear characteristic, carburising or ferritic nitrocarburising is commonly used.

Nitrocarburizing is a shallow case variation of the nitriding process.
