Nitro-V Stainless Steel 4.1 x 50 x 900 mm

Description

One bar of Nitro-V Stainless Steel measuring 4.1 x 50 x 900 mm.

Nitro-V is a martensitic stainless steel based on the chemistry of AEB-L razorblade steel. However, Nitro-V has been enriched with Nitrogen and Vanadium to create a new alloy that provides exceptional edge performance, high hardness, and above all toughness. Similar to AEB-L steel, Nitro-V with its added chromium has excellent corrosion resistance.

Due to Nitro-V’s high hardenability, it can be cooled in air or plate quenched for hardness.
