SS2686 440C Stainless Steel Powder

440C Stainless Steel Powder Description

440C Stainless Steel Powder is the highest carbon content stainless steel in the 400 stainless steel series known for its exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. 440 stainless steel has 4 versions: 440A, 440B, 440C, and 440F. Except for 440F, the other three 440 stainless steel’s difference is carbon content. 440C is the most popular version and 440F is an upper version of 440C with S addition. 440C stainless steel shows better edge retention during properly heat-treated
