Deep Cryogenics makes engine parts more durable

Many racers have tried this method by applying with dry ice to heat treatment approximately -120°F to change molecular structure of metal..

It is at cryogenic temperatures (-300°F) that the molecule change, making all the retained austenite turn to marstensite, a more dense, refined mix that is smaller and more uniform than austensite..

Dry cryogenic processing transforms micro-structure into stronger uniform substructure..
