Best Practices for Heat Treating Bearings & Gears<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bearings and gears drive the mechanics of the vehicles and equipment that we rely on every day. Proper heat treatment ensures maximum part life and performance.<\/p>\n\n\n

Controlled Austenitization<\/h4>\n

Ensuring that the proper microstructure results from heat treatment is critical to field performance for bearings and gears. Our automated precision furnace controls allow us to minimize retained austenite formation in our continuous belt and batch equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n

Testing Specifications<\/h4>\n

We ensure proper hardness in your finished parts using <\/span>Rockwell, Brinell, and microhardness testing.<\/span><\/a> For case hardened bearings and gears, we often use the microhardness technique. We perform destructive testing on parts to verify total case depth. Our quality team can measure your parts at your desired spot in the part\u2019s geometry to bring you peace of mind in your heat treating results.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n

Preventing Distortion<\/h4>\n

Gears and bearings often require tight tolerances to function in their applications. Some gears are often heat treated prior to being machined into their final shape. Your <\/span>quench media<\/span><\/a> and quench and cooling rates play a large role in preventing distortion. We apply precise controls to this (and every) step of your parts\u2019 processes to yield in-shape parts that are ready for the next production step.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n

\n

Case Depth<\/h4>\n

The desired case depth varies for bearings and gears depending on the application. Heavier applications, such as helical gears for agricultural equipment, require <\/span>deep case carburizing<\/span><\/a> because of the tremendous forces placed on the parts. Smaller parts run the risk of through casing without proper process control, where the resulting part is all case and no core. With our automated, precision process controls, we\u2019re able to avoid through casing and deliver the precise case depth you need for your parts.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
