Wheels
and Sheaves
|
|
| Cost
of wheels can be reduced by completely finishing OD's before flame
hardening. They can be made of cast iron, ductile iron, or steel. |
|
|
|
| Sheaves
require groove hardening only -- flame hardening is the final
operation and is both economical and fast. |
|
Cams
|
|
| Cams
-- O.D., I.D., or barrel. Finish machine and flame harden. Elimimate
costly die steels. High hardness where you want it. |

Selectively
Hardened Arbor Shaft
|
|
- Flame
hardening saves money by hardening only selective areas
- Flame
hardening achieves high hardness for increased life
- Less
distortion than comparable methods of heat treating
- Less
machining and grinding associated with other methods of heat
treating
- Reduced
processing time
- Substituting
of carbon steels for costly alloy steels
- Flame
hardening provides more efficient productivity through increased
wear resistance, leading to reduced down time
