What is Hardening?Hardening increases the hardness of a material by suitable treatment usually involving heating and cooling.
Other common names and related subjects are: age hardening, neutral hardening, quench hardening, direct hardening, flame hardening, induction hardening, laser hardening, and surface hardening.*
