CORROSION PROTECTION
Corrosion Protection for Steel Components
Components exposed to moisture, contaminants, changing temperatures, and demanding operating environments require more than surface hardness alone. JGS combines plasma ion nitriding with PLASOX® post-plasma oxidation to improve corrosion resistance while maintaining the dimensional accuracy and surface performance of precision steel components.

Where Corrosion Protection Matters
PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
Advantages of Plasma Nitriding and PLASOX® for Corrosion Protection
Improved Corrosion Resistance
PLASOX® post-plasma oxidation provides an additional protective surface for components exposed to corrosive environments.
No Surface Build-Up
The diffusion-based treatment avoids the dimensional surface buildup associated with conventional plating processes.
Improved Wear Resistance
Plasma nitriding hardens the working surface while providing additional protection against mechanical wear.
Reduced Friction
Improved surface characteristics can reduce the coefficient of friction between contacting components.
Minimal Distortion
Low-temperature processing helps preserve critical dimensions, tolerances, and component geometry.
Greater Fatigue Strength
Plasma nitriding can improve surface fatigue performance in components subjected to repeated loading.
Durable Black Finish
PLASOX® treatment produces a clean black appearance while adding corrosion protection to the treated surface.
Reduced Post-Processing
Treated components typically require little or no additional machining to remove unwanted surface buildup.
Combined Surface Protection
Plasma nitriding and PLASOX® combine wear resistance and corrosion protection in a complementary treatment process.
Repeatable Results
Computer-controlled processing allows treatment parameters to be reproduced for consistent production results.
