Heat Treating Applications for the Manufacturing and Materials Processing Industry

Annealing is the process of heating steel above the transformation temperature, slowly cooling it, increasing the workability of the metal. Gas-based atmospheres achieve a bright surface finish.

Carburizing is a heat treatment process in which steel absorbs carbon while the metal is heated. Our technology provides ideal conditions for better control and repeatability.

Furnace brazing is commonly used when large batches of parts are processed. We provide a reducing atmosphere to produce quality joints, control temperature and improve production.

Nitriding and nitrocarburizing can help you increase surface wear resistance. This requires a safe and reliable supply of ammonia in order to achieve excellent process results.

Sintering uses compressed metal or ceramic powders to form various shapes. Our atmospheric gases help achieve a consistent performance for your operation.

Furnace inerting and parts quenching are common heat treating applications. We offer gases in a variety of supply systems to meet your process requirements.
