Expanding Applications of AISI 440C Stainless Steel
Expanding Applications of AISI 440C Stainless Steel.
440C stainless steel is a high-carbon martensitic stainless steel alloy. It belongs to the 400 series of stainless steels, which are known for their excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and wear resistance. The “440” in its name represents the composition of the steel, which includes approximately 1% carbon content.
