Nitriding
Nitriding
(OP)
I have the rotating disk of a rotary screen changer that has been damaged. The two faces of the disk have been damaged. The disk is made of a nitrided steel. If I have the plates lapped flat again. Would it be possible to have the disk nitrided again? Or can you only nitride a metal once?

I don't know what the origional material was, or the nitriding depth. I am also pretty sure as they want me to by a new one they are not about to tell me, as it is of no benifit to them.
Am I correct in guessing that nitriding generally only penetrates .015".
If I am only lapping the faces, would it matter in the re nitriding process that the whole thing was origionally nitrided?
Thanks for the good input. I know it is hard to give good answers with out all the facts.
