AISI 440C - EN 1.4125 - Martensitic Stainless Steel - Stainless steel

AISI 440C - EN 1.4125

AISI 440C - EN 1.4125 is able to attain, through heat treatment, the greatest strength, hardness, and wear resistance out of all stainless alloys, due to its highly elevated carbon content. It is especially suited to applications like ball bearings and valve parts.

Essential details

AISI 440A and 440B are identical except for slightly lower carbon contents (0.60 - 0.75% and 0.75 - 0.95% respectively); these have lower attainable hardnesses but slightly higher corrosion resistances. Although all three versions of this grade are standard grades, in practice 440C is more available than the A or B variants.

A free-machining variant 440F (UNS S44020) also exists, with the same high carbon content as 440C.

Typical Applications:

- Chisels

- Surgical equipment

- High quality knife blades

- Valve seats

- Rolling element bearings
