Boronising

Boronising, sometimes referred to as boriding, is a diffusion coating with a low co-efficient of friction that is capable of retaining its high hardness at elevated temperatures.

Diffusion Alloys are capable of boronising a wide range of metal base layers including nickel, cobalt, tungsten carbide and most ferrous alloys without sacrificing the corrosion-resistance or mechanical properties of the base material. Boronising is used in a wide range of applications and industries. It is commonly used to produce glass bottle moulds, plungers, dies, tooling and for components in the oil & gas and turbomachinery industries.

Chromising

Diffusion Alloys was the first company globally to launch chromising as a commercial industrial diffusion process. With 60 years of experience in applying chromide coatings we working closely with our customers to provide specified or customised chromide coatings that satisfy specific requirements for wear and/or corrosion resistance.

Chromide coatings are used on a wide range of components, including chain pins, sprags, levers, rods, locators, seals and tubes.

Aluminizing / Calorizing

Aluminizing and calorizing by Diffusion Alloys infuse aluminium into materials, fortifying against corrosion. Originating in Tyco Van Aller’s 1911 patent, these processes, including Alonizing™, enhance steel and alloy longevity. Diffusion Alloys (DA) leads pack aluminizing, crucial for resisting metal dusting, carburization, oxidation, and sulfidation. Process versatility accommodates various substrates, ensuring reliability through stringent quality control measures.
