Nitro Carburizing Salt : Meproche N485

Nitriding process is suitable for components/parts which have been finally machined and a hard case is to be imparted on them without distortions.

This is achived by formation of hard nitrides of iron on the top surfaces. However the layer of nitrides insulate further penetrations and therefore the case depth achievable is low and the process time is long. Hence nitrocarburizing salts are used to increase case depth, which consists of carbides and nitrides.

MEPROCHE N-485 is a specially designed salt for nitrocarburizing components by salt-bath technique, which is much cheaper than gas-nitriding equipments.
