ASTM G133 Wear resistance on stainless steel
- Expanite sets new standards
Based on the impressive surface hardness achieved by Expanite´s nitrocarburizing - up to 1200-1500HV - the wear resistance sets new standards. Results from an ASTM G133 wear test show a 168 times improvement in performance when comparing SuperExpanite® hardened AISI316 steel against an untreated reference.
