The invention discloses a non-brittle nitridation technique for bearing components. According to the technological process, whether the interior of a nitridation furnace leaks air or not is detected firstly, if the air is not leaked, the inflation stage is executed, and then the temperature in the nitridation furnace is increased to 300-350 DEG C;
ammonia gas and mixed liquid of a penetrating agent and
ammonium chloride concentrated liquid are led into the nitridation furnace, the leading-in speeds of the
ammonia gas and the mixed liquid of the penetrating agent and the
ammonium chloride concentrated liquid are controlled, and the interior of the furnace continues to be heated till the temperature is 480-500 DEG C; then the leading-in speeds of the
ammonia gas and the mixed liquid of the penetrating agent and the
ammonium chloride concentrated liquid are increased, and the temperature of the interior of the furnace is increased to 520-550 DEG C; then the inflation speed of the
ammonia gas is decreased, and leading-in of the
ammonia gas and the mixed liquid of the penetrating agent and the
ammonium chloride concentrated liquid is stopped; gas in the furnace is discharged, the pressure in the furnace is controlled, and the temperature in the furnace is decreased to 100-130 DEG C; and finally an
ammonia gas bottle and a nitridation furnace gas
inlet valve are closed, vacuumizing is conducted,
nitrogen gas is led into the furnace to enable the pressure of the interior of the furnace to be positive, the valve is opened, air in the furnace is replaced, the temperature is decreased, and the components are taken out. According to the non-brittle nitridation technique for the bearing components, the problems that as for an existing nitridation technique, the depth of the effective nitridation layer is small, the surface
hardness is low, and deformation is large can be effectively solved.
