FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brenham, Texas, (March 2, 2022) - REM Surface Engineering recognized in latest release of NASA's Spinoff 2022 publications. REM Surface successfully finished surfaces of 3D-printed metal parts under two Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts from Marshall in 2018 and '19, REM developed the ability to surface-finish parts printed from Inconel 625 and 718, popular nickel-based superalloys of interest to the agency and industry. The funding also helped the company develop surface finishing for JBK-75, an iron-nickel-based alloy, and NASA HR-1, a derivative of JBK-75 that's resistant to the high-pressure environment of hydrogen engines.
"REM is truly honored to be included in this year's NASA Spinoff highlights. Our work with NASA MSFC has been a fantastic opportunity to broaden our capabilities and technology offerings, and we are grateful to be playing a part in actualizing additive manufacturing as a fabrication technology for rocket engine applications," Michaud said.

Featured Product
T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
