ABSTRACT:
The primary object of the invention is to clean and activate the surface of metallic works prior to such thermal treatment as nitriding, thermal spraying or dip plating by removing oxidized and other passive layers and foreign matters from the metallic work surface.
The method of pretreating metallic works comprises heating a metallic work in a furnace and introducing a fluorine- or fluoride-containing gas into the furnace in that state to thereby cause destruction and elimination of the foreign matters adhering to the metallic work surface and of the oxidized layer occurring on the metallic work surface and simultaneous formation of a fluorinated layer. Just prior to the main thermal treatment, for example nitriding, the fluorinated layer is decomposed and eliminated by introducing an appropriate gas, for example H.sub.2, into the furnace. In this way, the metallic work reveals its cleaned and activated surface.
