If a nitriding coating alone does not meet the requirements, subsequent oxidation (directly in the nitriding process or as a separate process) can further improve corrosion resistance and coefficient of friction. In the targeted post-oxidation, an oxidizing atmosphere (e.g. by adding H2O or O2) the iron nitride coating on the surface of the workpiece is converted into an iron oxide layer.
The appropriate choice of temperature (up to 600°C), time and atmosphere can increase the corrosion resistance of a nitriding coating by a factor of 10. The surface of oxidized workpieces is anthracite-colored and has a lower coefficient of friction than nitrided surfaces.

Precipitation-free nitriding
Can be used flexibly for various, individually adaptable applications.
Cost-effective series
A high filling level per batch enables more cost-effective series production.
Improved corrosion protection
The corrosion protection of the components can be additionally increased by our GASOX® process.
Gas nitriding & oxidizing: crankshafts & more
Classic applications
Crankshafts, camshafts, toothed shafts, connecting rods ...
Gears, ring gears, pinions, ...
Bearing rings, bearing balls, ...
Machine tool parts
Spindles and screws
GASOX® is particularly suitable for applications in which classic nitriding requirements need to be expanded with additional surface functions. As early as the design phase, it should be clarified which areas must be functionally active, which surfaces need to be protected or masked, and which type of load will dominate in operation. This allows the process to be precisely adapted to tribological requirements, component cleanliness, production volume and the desired surface effect. It creates a clear technical basis for specifications, sampling and ongoing quality control.
