Toughening
What it does: Toughening is a heat treatment sequence (usually hardening followed by tempering) optimized to increase a component’s ability to withstand dynamic loads and impact forces without failure.
Best suited for:
- Load-bearing and impact-prone parts
- Automotive, rail, structural, and off-road components
Ideal if you’re looking for:
- A part that can handle shock loads, vibrations, and mechanical abuse
- Superior resistance to cracking or brittle failure
📞 Great for components operating under fluctuating or impact stresses. Share your part requirements to get tailored advice.
