Black Oxide Failure and Common Problems in Application
13 December 2016A black oxide finish imbues a worked ferrous component with an attractive ebony coating. The process transforms a thin layer of surface metal into iron oxide, so no deposits are called for here, just a chemical reaction that enhances corrosion resistance. As advantageous as this supplementary feature undoubtedly is, black […]

Stress Relieving is Insurance for Engineering Projects
08 December 2016Large-scale engineering projects use machined metal components to support structural loads. They accomplish this task by accessing the strength of a selected alloy. Unfortunately, strength isn’t the only attribute contained within the metal. The worked part also contains undesirable properties, those incurred by numerous machine stations. Residual stress is the […]
