These Stainless Steel 440C Round Bars and Rods are primarily made up of high carbon (0.95–1.20%) and chromium (16–18%), along with trace amounts of manganese, silicon, and molybdenum. This martensitic stainless steel offers remarkable hardness, excellent wear resistance, and moderate corrosion resistance. In terms of mechanics, 440C Round Bars and Rods boast a tensile strength ranging from 760–1100 MPa, impressive yield strength, and exceptional dimensional stability after heat treatment, making them ideal for high-precision and high-stress applications that demand durability and a long service life.
High carbon martensitic stainless steel rounds/rods, known as Stainless Steel 440C has excellent Hardness, Wear and Corrosion resistance. The material 440C stainless steel, at an average carbon concentration of 0.95 % to 1.20, can be annealed and subjected for high hardness; hence it gets used in critical applications like rolling bearings, control valves, high speed cutting tool, etc. It contains about 16-18% chromium, which provides corrosion resistance, and 1-1.5% molybdenum, enhancing its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. It has excellent strength and toughness, which extends to very high temperatures; thus, this material can be used for aggressive applications in the aerospace, automotive, and industrial fields.
