- Technical Info
440c stainless steel round bar is used when maximum hardness and wear resistance are required. This martensitic stainless grade can be heat treated to achieve the highest strength and hardness of any stainless alloy, making it a strong choice for tools, bearings, and precision components. It offers moderate corrosion resistance and performs well in demanding industrial and mechanical environments.
Applications: Rolling element bearings, valve seats, knife blades, surgical instruments, chisels, gage blocks, cutlery, ball bearings, molds, dies, and precision measuring tools.
