The company is an established source for austempering and automatic acid zinc chloride plating with excellent technical support. It has a state-of-the-art austempering and acid zinc chloride plating plant positioned to meet international quality standard requirements as well as large output. In austempering the parts are heated till red hot condition in a controlled atmosphere and then quenched in a bath of molten salt. The austempering reaction takes place over many minutes thereby resulting in gradual transformation. The transformed structure is bainite instead of martensite and it is tougher. No additional tempering process is required.
Advantages of austempering:

• Higher impact and fatigue strength
• Toughness and more wear resistant
• Greater ductility with higher hardness
• Resistance to hydrogen embrittlement
• Clean surface and plating friendly
• Less distortion due to hardening.
