ISO 9001 & Ford WHTX Heat Treater | HTI Quality
Quality

Automotive-grade quality you can prove.

ISO 9001:2015 registered, Ford WHTX approved, and CQI-9 compliant — backed by the process controls to deliver consistent hardness on every part, in every lot.

Certifications

Qualifications your buyers can audit.

The approvals that let automotive and industrial programs source from HTI with confidence.

ISO 9001:2015

Our quality management system is registered to ISO 9001:2015 — the international standard for consistent, repeatable process control.

Registered

Ford WHTX

HTI is an approved heat treater under Ford’s WHTX specification — a tier-one automotive quality signal few commercial heat treaters carry.

Approved

CQI-9

Compliant with CQI-9, the automotive industry’s heat-treat system assessment (AIAG) — the benchmark for heat-treat process quality.

Compliant
Quality Systems

When failure is not an option.

Certifications set the bar; process control is how we hold it. HTI’s systems are built to deliver the same result on the first part and the millionth.

  • Repeatable furnace loadingComputerized autoloaders load every furnace uniformly for consistent, repeatable results.
  • Continuous foreign-material reductionAn ongoing process protects part cleanliness lot to lot.
  • Consistent hardnessProcess controls hold hardness consistent throughout every part, in every lot.
  • Continuous improvementOngoing refinement of the process drives lot-to-lot repeatability over time.
