Testing Lab Needed for Carburized Parts

Testing Lab Needed for Carburized Parts

Testing Lab Needed for Carburized Parts

(OP)
Can someone suggest a really good testing laboratory that has a lot of experience working with carburized parts?

I have worked with a couple of local labs (Philly area) but I don't think they work with carburized parts much.  At least I am not happy with their service.

The parts are small so the geographic location does not matter.

Many Thanks
Bill

Scroll down to the Metallurgy section and look at the laboratories.

Use the lab accredidation services and search by the standard or keyword and your location for commercial labs:

I can highly recommend Climax Research Services as an A2LA accredited lab with a wide range of analytical capabilities.  If you want to look at residual stresses this requires X-Ray Diffraction, with TEC and Proto both being very capable.

Have you tried Metlab?

RE: Testing Lab Needed for Carburized Parts

We've used Lab Testing Inc., in Hatfield PA.  You might also try PMI in Bethlehem, PA for possible labs - they do heat treating and batch carburizing and may have an outside lab that they use.
