Nitriding Nitriding is a thermochemical process that introduces nitrogen into the surface of metal parts., mainly steels, to improve its hardness, wear resistance, fatigue and corrosion. It is carried out at low temperatures (500-550°C) using methods such as gas nitriding, plasma or salt bath. This treatment forms a hard layer of iron nitrides and a diffusion zone, achieving high surface hardness with minimal distortion, being ideal for engine components, cutting tools and industrial molds.
