• Plastic  Injection Moulds
• Screws
• Barrels
• Nozzle tips and nozzle bodies
• Side-action cores and cavity inserts
• Ejector Pins and sleeves
• Slides and lifters
• Bushings and guide pillars

• For high Wear resistance
• For high Fatigue strength
• For Reduced friction and adhesion
• For Corrosion resistance

• Significantly increasing the surface hardness, wear (abrasive and adhesive) resistance and fatigue life of the tools, improving their lifespan and performance.

• Reducing the friction coefficient  and the adhesion of the plastic material to the tools. Nitriding will also lower the friction for bushings and guide pillars.
• Increasing the corrosion resistance which is needed for certain additives and processing conditions.

Improving these parameters will save from downtime and maintenance costs.

• Hardness and depth values are recommended for the industry and exact values will depend on the nitriding process parameters.
