The combination of a high carbon content and the elements chromium, molybdenum and vanadium leads to excellent wear properties.
Optimization by homogeneously distributed carbides
Due to the powder metallurgical production route, the wear-resistant carbides are particularly homogeneously distributed, which further optimizes the wear properties and mechanical properties compared to the conventional production.
