Tufftriding QPQ
Tufftriding QPQ (Quench Polish Quench) is a heat treatment process that enhances wear, fatigue and corrosion properties of any ferrous material, but with minimal distortion owing to the low process temperature of 580°C. These benefits result from the formation of an intermetallic compound (epsilom iron nitride) on the surface of the treated component, strengthened and supported by the diffusion of nitrogen.
Benefits of low temperature nitro-carburising:
- High Corrosion Resistance
- Increased fatigue strength
- Low co-efficient of friction
- High wear resistance

When quenched to develop the full properties, treated parts have a characteristic matt black finish and for many applications no further treatment is necessary.
Polish
When operating against plastic or rubber seals, soft bearing metals or simply because a superior cosmetic appearance is required, the components are polished.
Quench
Optimum colour and corrosion properties are restored by a short passivation treatment in the quench bath.

Friendly, helpful service and top quality work.
We … More had a great many sixty-year-old 'atomic' style wire items (plant stands, magazine racks, fruit bowls, etc) in the full range of sizes that needed the complete blasting/coating treatment. We also had bare metal shades and bases from a dozen vintage lamps for powder coating. Keith and James at CBS didn't bat an eyelid when presented with this random collection and proceeded to make an absolutely sterling job of it all. We will be back! -
The people at CBS are absolute champions!
I would recommend … More in an instant. -
Great service. Great Staff
