Does anyone have a suggestion for a coating, or plating that might be applied to a cocking piece (generic Remington style) to reduce bolt lift...one that would last?
Roy:
Bill Myers did my complete action. Small parts can be done separately.
Sorry Fred, but that doesn't answer my question. What specific area, if any, is nitrided. Many thanks, Roy.
Pardon my ignorance, but where/how is the nitriding done? Just on the action cam area or action bolt cam area or also other areas? Again, pardon my ignorance.
Roy
Not sure where you want it done, Nitriding is a process which creates a case depth ( hardening ) in the metal, its not a "coating". This increases wear and corrosion resistance. Seems like the best option, for what alot of people are looking for. If you have any questions on it feel free to ask, I know quite abit on it.
The "Boron Nitride Electroless Plating" refered to above is not a nitriding process it is an electroless nickel plating process that has boron nitride particles embedded in it to add lubricity.
Correct, Nitriding is a diffusion of Nitrogen, not a plating.
Intrested to know what they consider "nitride particles"
