Examples of methods for treating a cast iron workpiece are disclosed herein. In one example of the method, a nanocrystallized microstructure at a finish surface of the cast iron workpiece is roller burnished. The roller burnishing reduces roughness of the nanocrystallized microstructure. In another example of the method, a machined, finish surface of the cast iron workpiece is deformed by rubbing the machined, finish surface against a blunt tool to form a nanocrystallized microstructure at the machined, finish surface. The machined, finish surface is cooled simultaneously with the deforming to promote nanocrystallization of the machined, finish surface. |
