RWL-34
Martensitic stainless powder steel RWL 34
Rapid Solidified Powder (RPS) based steel is a variation of the 420 martensitic stainless steel with >13% Chromium. The addition of Molybdenum and Vanadium gives the RWL 34 even greater corrosion resistance, hardness and strength. Close equivalent to 154CM
Characteristics
-High edge strength
-High hardness after hardening and tempering
-High corrosion resistance
-Easy grinding and polishing
-High purity and cleanliness
