Chronifer M-17C material is Manufactured in Rod, Bar and coil

AISI 440C ~  Stainless Steel

 

Material Features

High carbon chromium steel designed to provide stainless properties with maximum hardness.  After heat treatment type 440C attains the highest hardness of any stainless steel (about 60 HRC).  This stainless steel principally has been used in bearing assemblies including bearing balls and races.  In addition, it should be considered for cutlery, needle valves, ball check valves, etc.
