Improved sustainability
The environmental benefits are clear. Unlike chrome, NitroSteel®
leaves no hazardous byproduct in our facility or in your operations.
NitroSteel® is a product of Aalberts
surface technologies – the world’s leading provider of surface
treatment technologies, services and solutions. Aalberts has
been in business for more than 80 years, currently operating in
over 200 facilities in 30 countries.
Field tested and specified by original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs) in varying industries for more than 30
years, NitroSteel® far exceeds traditional applications like
chrome plating and offers a number of tangible benefits,
including superior corrosion resistance, improved wear
resistance, enhanced lubrication retention, dent resistance,
elimination of pitting or flaking, and increased surface life,
among others.
NitroSteel®
is the only FNC application process in North America to process
bars/tubes in lengths of up to 24-ft. and 36” in width.
The FNC hardening
process enables a diffused layer (iron nitride) that eliminates
flaking, blistering and associated rapid system failures.
The durability of NitroSteel®
enables our customers to extend their warranties on varying applications thanks
to blister/flake-free performance on applications such as piston rods, hydraulic
cylinders and custom-designed/engineered components.
NitroSteel®
is an efficient and cost-effective solution for superior appearance,
durability, and reduced warranty costs.
Aalberts surface technologies
serves as a partner for metallurgical expertise to ensure
class-leading fit/enduring finish for any application.
NitroSteel® is made from a sustainable process.
It is absent of hexavalent chrome and trivalent chrome. NitroSteel®
leaves no hazardous byproducts in our facility or yours. And we fully
recycle grinding steel swarf.
