Steel heat treatment

Specialty Steel Treating is a leading precision steel heat treatment company that has more than 60 years of experience working with commercial clients and heat treated steel in many industries. Our mission is to perform high-quality precision controlled heat treating to maximize productivity and lower manufacturing costs.

Some of the steel and metal heat treatment services we offer include: tempering steel, case hardening, oil quenching, steel heat treatment, precipitation hardening, vacuum heat treatments and more.

VACUUM TREATMENTS

During our vacuum heat treatments, steel is austenitized through a process of applying varying high temperatures to the metal in conjunction with the use of a partial or hard pressure vacuum in order to protect the material and shorten processing time. This leaves the finished product less susceptible to corrosion, oxidation and wear, while improving strength and durability.

CASE HARDENING

The process of case application uses diffused carbon to strengthen steel by forming a casing which surrounds the material. This allows the outside to be tough without unnecessarily hardening the entire product throughout. Case application treatments can be applied to a range of metal parts, including high alloy and low-carbon steel pieces.
