Precipitation hardening stainless steel "Axia" *has minimal thermal treatment deformation and dimensional changes.
A new material with a high hardness of 56-58 HRC, high corrosion resistance equivalent to austenitic phase, and high strength of 2000 MPa class has been developed: precipitation-hardened stainless steel!
By precipitating hard metal intermetallic compounds through aging treatment, high hardness and wear resistance are improved; however, there was a challenge where the tensile strength and yield strength of our conventional steel (Silico Alloy XVI) decreased. At Silico Alloy Lab, we succeeded in fine and dispersed design of intermetallic compounds through component design! We have developed a new stainless material that adds [high strength × high yield] to [hardness × corrosion resistance]. 【Features of Axia Zero3】 ■ High hardness of 56–58 HRC ■ High corrosion resistance equivalent to austenitic phase ■ Achieves high strength of 2000 MPa class ■ High hardness can be achieved at tempering temperature equivalent (aging treatment at 480°C) ■ Minimal thermal deformation and dimensional changes It is possible to reduce total costs through new product development, problem-solving, and extending lifespan. *For details, please download the PDF or contact us directly.
