Boron Carbide, Boronizing Blend With Additives

This is a boron carbide blend for boronizing.  It is not too coarse (not enough contact between B4C particles), and not too fine, which would cause caking (too quick of a reaction).  It is a blend of boron carbide particles plus additives.  This blend has a boron content of approximately 76% to 78%. 

Minimum Quantity:  This boronizing blend is sold in quantities of 2,000lbs or more only.  Please use our Quote Request page to obtain a quote.  Normally this material is packaged in 100 lb drums.

What is Boronizing?  Boronizing is a thermochemical surface treatment, which increases wear and abrasion resistance.   Essentially boronizing makes the workpiece harder and more resistant to corrosion, wear, abrasion, and acids.  Boronizing is great for tools, molds, machinery, die components.  It also decreases the need for lubrication, and can be polished to a high gloss finish after treatment.
