Carburizing is a time-tested surface-hardening technique that infuses carbon into steel to enhance surface hardness while preserving core toughness. Widely used in automotive, construction, and manufacturing sectors, it improves part durability, wear resistance, and performance under stress. This article explores key carburizing methods — pack, gas, liquid, and vacuum — along with the step-by-step process, suitable materials, industrial applications, and quality control measures. For MSMEs, carburizing is a strategic investment that extends component life, reduces costs, and boosts reliability —...
