About Nitriding steels

Nitriding steels are alloy steels designed for nitriding, a surface-hardening treatment that produces a hard, wear-resistant surface while retaining a tough supporting core. They are used for gears, shafts, dies and other components requiring resistance to wear, repeated loading and dimensional change in service.

This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.
