At Steel Treat, we specialize in Toughening Heat Treatment, a process that enhances both the strength and toughness of steel and alloy components. Unlike processes that focus only on hardness or ductility, toughening strikes the right balance, making components strong enough to withstand high loads while also being resistant to cracks and sudden failures.
Toughening is a heat treatment method involving hardening followed by tempering. The component is first heated and quenched to achieve hardness, then reheated to a lower temperature (tempering) to remove brittleness and improve toughness.
The result is a material with high strength, good impact resistance, and dimensional stability—making it ideal for engineering applications where safety and durability are critical.
