Nitrocarburizing

Nitrocarburizing is a case hardening process. Despite what the name might suggest, nitrocarburizing is not a form of carburizing. In nitrocarburizing, a carbon or alloy steel is exposed to an atmosphere of nitrogen and carbon. After exposure to this atmosphere, a thin, carbon-rich layer forms on the surface of the part, and after quenching a hard case is produced.
