  • Suitable for robust outdoor, working and larger knives.

Hardening

Hardening: protect the surface against decarburisation / austenitise at approx. 950-980 °C / air hardening possible (oil also suitable). Temper according to the desired hardness; common working hardness approx. 58-60 HRC. Please verify the exact heat treatment before use.

Notes

The chemical analysis and hardness values are industry-standard typical values for X100CrMoV5 and serve only to describe the material; they do not replace your own suitability check. A professional review of the heat treatment is recommended.

Note: Special sizes can only be sourced from an order quantity of 500 kg. Please send an inquiry by email if you are interested.
