BORON DIFFUSION
ALLOY PROPERTIES
- Very high hardness of 1500-2200 (KNOOP)
- Excellent wear, erosion, and cavatation resistance
- Good corrosion resistance in many acidic and caustic environments
- Excellent high temperature properties to 1100°F
- Low coefficient of friction
- Diffusion depths up to .020 inches are attainable. Typical depths are .003 to .012 depending on the substrate
- Surface build up is approximately 20% of diffusion depth
