ABSTRACT:
A ferrous-based component is nitrided by subjecting the heated component to an atmosphere of ammonia and then to an atmosphere of an inert gas. The undesirable nitrogen-rich layer which was hitherto produced at the surface of the component in nitriding is reduced or eliminated in the process of the invention.
