Engineering steels - Heat treatable and nitriding steels (en-US)

Quenched and tempered steels offer high yield strengths with good toughness and are used for structural parts in mechanical engineering and toolmaking. Nitriding steels are heat-treatable steels with higher contents of Chromium, Molybdenum, Vanadium and also Aluminium and are particularly suitable for low-distortion surface hardening using nitriding processes. This significantly increases wear resistance and fatigue strength.
