Woodworth, Inc. provides heat treatment services through three facilities located in Pontiac and Flint, Michigan, and Puebla, Mexico, with a planned expansion to Homer, Michigan. Serving the automotive and oil and gas sectors, the company offers treatments that enhance component performance and durability. Nanowear is a diffusion-based process that alters the base material at the molecular level rather than applying a coating, producing a hard outer surface and a nitrogen-rich layer to improve corrosion resistance and fatigue strength; parts up to 33 feet long and 8 by 8 feet and weighing as much as 150,000 pounds can be processed. In addition, ferritic nitrocarburizing strengthens brake rotors and reduces noise and friction, while Ultrawear enhances wear and corrosion resistance of steel components. The Nanowear technology addresses oil and gas applications such as fluid ends, valves, offshore housings, and wellhead components, among others. Woodworth heats more than 1.5 million pounds of material per day, reflecting its production scale, and is described as a mid-sized heat-treating firm based in Pontiac, Michigan, with operations in Michigan and Mexico and planned expansion.
