Low Carbon Steel Case Hardening Process Explained

How would you attribute metal, properties that would assure external hardness as well as internal toughness to it? Low carbon case hardening steel is made through one such process through which a metal’s outer crust is made very hard and tamper proof without disturbing its internal compositions. Case hardening of low carbon steel material is quite popular and is widely employed and finds varied applications in numerous fields. The article explains many different case hardening procedures like open-hearth, box, cyaniding, nitriding etc.
