Lindure®
Lindure is Bodycote's proprietary thermo-chemical surface
heat treatment generally know as Ferritic Nitrocarburizing. This low temperature,
low distortion process is gas based. During the process nitrogen, carbon and
oxygen are diffused into the surface of a component forming a single phase epsilon
nitride layer called a 'compound zone' and a difussion zone consisting of nitrogen
in solid solution.
The process is ideal for thin stampings, gears, bearing components
and other parts that are sensative to dimensional movement and require hard
wear surfaces. Process temperatures are typically between 1000 F and 1200 F
and cycles range from 15 minutes to 5 hours depending on requirements.
