Heat Treatment Services

Stalvex provides industrial heat treatment services designed to modify the microstructure of metals, significantly improving hardness, strength, and wear resistance while relieving internal stresses caused by prior machining or welding.

Key Engineering Benefits:

  • [ ]

    Enhanced durability: Improves resistance to wear, abrasion, and fatigue.

  • [ ]

    Stress relief: Removes internal tensions to prevent warping and ensure dimensional stability during final machining or use.

  • [ ]

    Microstructure optimization: Adjusts physical properties to meet specific engineering requirements.

Our Capabilities

Our Capabilities

We process a wide range of materials, including various steel alloys, cast iron, copper, and brass. Our facility is equipped to handle both large individual components and high-volume batches.

Core Services:

  • [ ]

    Quenching & tempering: Hardening steel using oil, water, or polymer quenching media, followed by controlled tempering to achieve the specified balance of hardness and toughness.

  • [ ]

    Carburizing (case hardening): Diffusing carbon into the surface to increase hardness for wear resistance while maintaining a tough, ductile core.

  • [ ]

    Annealing: Heating and slow cooling to soften the metal, improve machinability, and refine internal properties.

  • [ ]

    Normalizing: Refining the grain structure to produce uniform mechanical properties throughout the component.

  • [ ]

    Induction Hardening: Precise, localized surface hardening for parts like shafts, gears, and spindles.
