Nitriding　is　employed　for　the　hard　Fe　electrodeposition　to　produce　a　hard-facing　and　antiwear　coating.　It　only　takes　1　h　for　the　hard　Fe　coating,　which　is　much　shorter　than　nitriding　Fe　and　steel.　The　results　show　that　the　nitriding　can　increase　the　microhardness,　the　wear　resistance　of　the　coating,　as　well　as　the　bonding　strength　of　the　coating　with　the　substrate.　Additionally　it　can　eliminate　the　brittleness　and　turn　the　internal　stress　of　the　coating　from　tension　to　compression.　The　wear　resistance　of　the　nitrided　Fe　coating　is　4.6　times　as　high　as　that　of　Cr　coating.　It　is　simple　and　economic　to　combine　hard　Fe　electroplating　and　nitriding,　which　is　a　good　technology　of　the　tribological　surface　modification.
