FAQ

How does chromium in 440C stainless steel affect its corrosion resistance in industrial settings?

Chromium forms a passive oxide layer on the surface, which reduces oxidation and improves resistance to corrosive environments. This controlled microstructural characteristic helps maintain surface integrity during long-term exposure to industrial chemicals and moisture.

How does heat treatment influence the hardness and tensile strength of 440C stainless steel rod?

Heat treatment refines the microstructure and precipitates secondary carbides. This process increases hardness and tensile strength while balancing ductility. The resulting material properties support enhanced performance in wear-intensive components.

What machining considerations are necessary for 440C stainless steel rod?

Machining requires proper coolant application and tool selection to minimise work hardening and maintain dimensional accuracy. The high-carbon composition can increase tool wear; thus, using carbide tools and optimised feed rates yields better edge quality.
