How long should a steel component be heat treated before nitriding?

A 5-20 hours
B 40-100 hours
C 100-200 hours
D 300-500 hours

Correct Answer: 40-100 hours

Before nitriding is carried out, it is required that the workpieces are heat treated to produce the required properties in the core. The parts are heat treated at around 500oC for a period of 40 to 100 hours. This process takes place in a gas-tight chamber through which ammonia gas is allowed to circulate.
