I've got a couple questions for our resident metallurgists. Of course, nitriding hardens the bearings surfaces and reduces wear. But, will it make the crankshaft less likely to crack? Is there more t

Have you ever heard of cryogenically treating metal? It use the reverse process(kinda) or nitrating, cooling instead of heating. You don't have to do anything to the part to retrue it after treatment

Hey all, Our resident cryo facility (okay, a mile down the road) always heat tempers the cryo-treated piece afterward, and recommends that machining be done AFTER the treatment. I would recommend cry

Cryo treating doesn't harden the metal like Nitriding does - It does change the metal, how you'll have to ask Chuck Gee here on the board. I use Cryo treatment on all my brake parts including the pad

It looks like different cryo treaters may do or understand their processes differently. From what I understand, cryo does NOT treat only the surface of the metal -- it strengthens the bonds in the en

Actually, the alternative nitriding process I was referring to is still a thermal process, but runs at something like 400 degrees rather than 900 degrees. Larry

Didn't we have a discussion on this a while back? In that discussion I thought someone brought up the benefits of using both processes. Do you guys remember that or is old age catching up to me? Actu

OK guys (and gals) here it goes: Nitriding will increase the fatigue strength of a crankshaft by setting up compressive stress at the surface. In other words, it helps keep a crack from starting at t

So Chuck, would it be possible to do both treatments? If you cyrogenically treat, grind, plasma nitride and polish, would the nitride process also temper the crank? Mark Weathers
