Bodycote Kolsterising® North America presents a

proven anti-galling process for corrosion resistant,

non magnetic AISI 316 components for the automobile

producing industry.

Kolsterising® does not apply a coating on the surface but results in a

pure diffusion zone from the surface inwards, with excellent toughness

and no risk of delamination or peeling. Further, Kolsterising® increases

the surface hardness of austenitic stainless steels to a level of

1,000 - 1,200 HV 0.05 comparable with 70 - 74 HRc.

1. Engine valvesKolsterising® improves valve

shaft/stem friction behavior.

4. Brake systemsNon-magnetic parts are treated to

reduce friction and to reduce influence

of impact forces.

3. Fuel cell spool valvesKolsterising® reduces friction and

eliminates corrosive attack of

valve internals.

2. Fuel injectorsNon-magnetic internals are kolsterised

to eliminate galling and to reduce

impact influences.

5. Automatic transmissions

Non-magnetic internals in controls are

kolsterised to reduce friction and wear.

8. Automobile painting

Gear pumps for metering & transport

of water diluted paints benefit from

reduced abrasive wear with unchanged

or improved corrosion resistance.

7. Engine block cleaning

Dramatic extended life of HP-cleaning

nozzles due to reduction of cavitation

erosion influences.

6. Engine cooling

Kolsterised sealing devices last longer

due to reduced friction and increased

anti-wear properties.

No Distortion

Carbon Diffusion

Prevention of Galling

Low Temperature Process
