How to improve the hardness of stainless steel mesh belt

2021-01-11

High hardness is one of the basic characteristics of stainless steel mesh belt, and nitriding process can be used to increase its hardness. Nitriding is the process by which nitrogen atoms penetrate into the surface of steel. Its purpose is to improve surface hardness and wear resistance. The use of this stainless steel mesh belt process can improve fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance.






Stainless steel mesh belts are usually made with special equipment or pit carburizing furnace. Because the nitriding layer is thin and brittle, the stainless steel mesh belt needs a higher-strength core structure, so it needs to be quenched and tempered to improve the mechanical properties and quality of the core. Nitride layer. After nitriding the steel, the stainless steel mesh belt no longer needs to be tempered and has high surface hardness (higher than HV850) and wear resistance. The stainless steel mesh belt reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to form an oxide film on the surface, which can well prevent corrosion.
