The invention relates to surface treatment of chain parts, and particularly relates to a corrosion resistant surface treatment method of chain parts. A Fe-Al intermetallic compound corrosion resistant coating is obtained by adopting liquid state aluminum impregnation and following diffusion treatment for parts of a chain, such as a chain plate, a pin roll, a sleeve and a roller. The process flow comprises the following steps: pretreatment, aluminum impregnation, diffusion treatment and following quenching and tempering, wherein aluminum impregnation is performed in an aluminum liquid for 1-5 minutes at 720-750 DEG C; diffusion annealing is performed for 30 minutes to 2 hours at 850-1000 DEG C in a protective atmosphere; the intermetallic compound corrosion resistant coatings with different thicknesses are obtained by adjusting the temperature and time of diffusion treatment; after diffusion treatment, oil quenching is performed, and then tempering is performed for 2 hours at an intermediate temperature of 400-450 DEG C or a low temperature of 180-220 DEG C. The method provided by the invention has the characteristics of simple and convenient process, low cost, strong binding force of the coating, adaptability to batch production of small pieces and the like, can be used for producing chains in a corrosive environment, the treated chain can replace common chains or stainless steel chains, the performance and service life can be improved, and the alloy resources can be saved.
