Carbon Steel Vs Stainless Steel
We produce ASTM/ASME Grade 304, Grade 304L,304h, 316, 316L, 316H, 316TI, 321, 321H, 309S, 309H, 310S, 310H, 410S, 2205, 904L, 2507, 254, gh3030, 625, 253MA, S30815, 317L, Type 317, 316lN, 8020, 800, 800H, C276, S32304 and others special requirement stainless steel grade.
Most readily available W2 has a carbon content material of no more than 1-1.1%. Bill Moran thought of it to be virtually as tough as 5160, nevertheless it was unavailable for a time frame. W2 is among the carbon steels that can produce a pleasant Hamon in heat treating.
1055 metal is true on the border between a medium and a excessive carbon steel, with a carbon content material between zero.50%-0.60% and with manganese between zero.60%-zero.ninety% as the only other element. The carbon content and lean alloy make this a shallow hardening steel with a quenched hardness between Rc relying on actual carbon content. This steel is especially suited to functions where strength and influence resistance is valued above all different issues and can produce blades of just about legendary toughness.

.001.0420J2 – A decrease carbon content, basic-objective chrome steel. 420J2 has honest hardness and corrosion resistance and high ease of resharpening.
Technique For our stainless
- Other alloying elements contribute to grain refinement which increase blade power and edge toughness and likewise permit for a finer, sharper edge.
- The balance of carbon and chromium content material give it a excessive diploma of corrosion resistance and in addition impressive physical traits of strength and edge holding.
- Edge retention in actual chopping tests exceeded blades manufactured from the 420 and 440 series of stainless steels.
Our stainless production range
The balance of carbon and chromium content give it a high degree of corrosion resistance and in addition impressive physical traits of energy and edge holding. Edge retention in actual cutting tests exceeded blades manufactured from the 420 and 440 collection of stainless steels. Other alloying parts contribute to grain refinement which enhance blade energy and edge toughness and also allow for a finer, sharper edge.
Knife blades specified as being “440” can usually be assumed to be the decrease hardness 440A grade. 420 series comprise a number of varieties with varied carbon content material between .15% and .forty% this metal grade is broadly used to make excessive finish razor blades, surgical scalpels and so forth.
420HC is an excellent basic purpose knife metal when warmth-handled with our proprietary Paul Bos heat-deal with course of. Several metal alloys have carbon quantity close or above three%. As usual those steels may be hardened to extremely excessive levels, 65-67HRC. W2, a tool steel that holds its edge fairly nicely however not very tough.
Additional Properties
If nothing else is present, the steel is referred to as plain carbon steel. Steels used for knife blades are enhanced with additional components and are known as alloy steels.
We have thousands tons stock of stainless steel sheet and coil with various size and grade,mainly include austenitic stainless steel, martens stainless steel (including precipitation hardened stainless steel sheet & coil), ferritic stainless steel, and duplex stainless steel.
Characteristics of Stainless Steel Sheet and Plate:
High corrosion resistance
High strength
High toughness and impact resistance
Temperature resistance
High workability, including machining, stamping, fabricating and welding
Smooth surface finish that can be easily clean
