SUMMARY
In the present, 2nd part of the paper, (1st part has been published in Inżynieria Powierzchni no. 4, 2005) ex-amples of published results of cryogenic treatment are reported, as they generally manifest themselves by pro-longed service life of the steel products most frequently subjected to the cryogenic process: tools, vehicle ele-ments, and small arms. The cold and cryogenic treatment is mentioned which is performed in a specialistic cryogenic processor as an add-on to other thermal and thermochemical treatments carried out at Heat Treat-ment Centre, Institute of Precision Mechanics, Warsaw, Poland.
