Salt Bath Heat treatment

Salt Bath Heat Treatment is a time-tested and highly efficient thermal processing technique in which metal parts are immersed directly into molten salt baths at controlled temperatures. This method ensures uniform heat penetration, rapid heating, and reduced thermal gradients, which significantly minimizes the risk of distortion and cracking. Unlike conventional air furnaces, salt bath treatment prevents oxidation and decarburization, preserving surface finish and mechanical integrity. At Dhatukarm, we specialize in delivering end-to-end Salt Bath Heat Treatment solutions—ranging from the manufacturing of heat treatment salts (carburizing, nitriding, tempering, hardening) to the installation of modern heat treatment plants with zero-leakage technology. Our systems are especially valuable in industries where dimensional stability and hardness are critical, such as aerospace, automotive, tool & die making, and precision component manufacturing. With over 35 years of metallurgical experience and an IIT-engineer-led team, Dhatukarm continues to lead in innovation, quality, and reliability in salt bath technology.
