AISI 420C Stainless Steel

The utility of 420C:
1. Corrosion resistance: 420C stainless steel is resistant to rust and corrosion, making it ideal for use in humid or wet environments.
2. Edge retention: This steel is able to hold a sharp edge for a long time, reducing the need for frequent sharpening.
3. Easy to sharpen: 420C is relatively easy to sharpen, making it a good choice for beginners or those who prefer to maintain their own blades.
4. Affordable: Compared to higher-end steels, 420C is more budget-friendly while still offering good performance.

Product Description

AISI 420C Stainless Steel AISI 420C

1.Steel Grade:AISI 420C | 1.4034 | BS 420S45 | X46Cr13 | 

Stainless steel AISI 420C, also known as 1.4034, BS 420S45 or DIN X46Cr13, is a ferromagnetic martensitic steel. The material is characterised by good wear resistance and polishability (high-gloss polishing is possible). Stainless steel AISI 420C has a density of 7.7 kg/dm³ (at 20 °C), a hardness of ≤ 245 HB and a tensile strength of 800 to 1000 N/mm². The material is easy to forge but difficult to machine. It should not be used for welding.

Martensitic stainless steel 1.4034 has good corrosion resistance (PREN value 12.5 to 14.5), which is, however, negatively affected in the soft-annealed or highly tempered state. It is not resistant to seawater and some acids, nor to intercrystalline corrosion. The material is suitable for hot forming and machining. It is rarely used for cold forming and machining, and is not normally used for cold heading. AISI 420C stainless steel is regularly used in industry for the production of cutting tools such as knives. In medical technology, the material is used, for example, for the production of scalpels and surgical instruments.
