Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing corrosion-resistant surfaces of nitrated or nitrocarburated steel components, the surfaces having roughness heights (Rz) of Rz≧1.5 μm. The method comprises the following steps: oxidation of the surfaces of the nitrated or nitrocarburated components in a first oxidation step; carrying out at least a second oxidation of the component surfaces in an immediately subsequent oxidation step; polishing the component surface in a final method step, directly after the final oxidation.
