Firearms Industry

After firearms are manufactured, they often have residual stresses and distortions in their structure. During firing, there is rapid heating and cooling, leading to warping and irregularities in the barrel where the bullet passes through. These issues decrease the firearm’s accuracy in hitting the target.

Cryogenic processing, with its ability to relieve residual stresses and increase wear resistance,

• Increases the firearm’s accuracy in hitting the target by up to 50%,
• prevents the formation of rifling,
• Extends the lifespan of the firearm.

Residual stresses in pistols and rifles can cause bending and twisting after consecutive shots. As a result, the firearm’s performance decreases significantly. Controlled cryogenic processing can achieve these properties in military rifles, pistols, and shotguns within 48 hours.
