About Flash Steelworks
The Flash Process
The Flash(r) Process
Our unique system will change the way you think about steel. It has been theorized for over 30 years that ordinary steel could be heat treated to reach a level of strength, hardness and formability that has yet to be seen. Flash has made that theory a reality. Flash's revolutionary thermal processing cycle is capable of strengthening steel previously only dreamed of. Not only that, but our system produces a light weight steel with exceptional workability.
The Flash system creates the best overall performing, readily weldable structural metal ever created. Its unique microstructure -- an optimal mix of martensite and bainite -- makes a steel that is lightweight, durable, and highly formable.
The Flash process can be run as a stand-alone process, or it can be integrated directly into many manufacturing processes.
This cost-effective solution for strengthening steel is poised to revolutionize the steel industry. With our patented system, even smaller production shops can produce steel that was previously in reach of only the largest companies. All at a substantial cost savings versus other high strength steels.
With superior strength, weldability, weight savings and improved workability, Flash is truly the future of steel.

High strength and good elongation, ductility and toughness. Reduce product cost and weight, while also enhancing mechanical performance.
Data from four US Army labs
"The Flash Bainite processing of 4130 steel demonstrates promise for applications needing a combination of high strength with good elongation, ductility and toughness (e.g., armor and vehicle). The novel Flash Bainite process for steels has the potential to to reduce product cost and weight, while also enhancing mechanical performance."
