Compare the cutting performance strength of carbon steel and stainless steel blades
- 2020-09-15-

Is the cutting performance of carbon steel blades in Guangdong carbon steel casting stronger than stainless steel blades? The answer is: not so. Indeed, the broad view of many people at this stage is that carbon steel has stronger cutting power than stainless steel. But this view is problematic.

The key to the performance of the blade steel lies in: the elements in the alloy, the heat treatment process, the manufacturing process, and the shape of the knife.

The performance of blade steel is not limited to carbon steel and stainless steel.

Steel is an alloy, the key is made of iron and carbon. In addition, other elements are added to it to shape the different characteristics of steel. One of the elements is chromium. Stainless steel is a kind of addition to the alloy composition of steelSteel with 13% chromium content.

The difference between stainless steel and carbon steel in Guangdong carbon steel casting is the chromium content.

Because steel lacks chromium content, so The corrosion rate of carbon steel blades is much higher than that of stainless steel.

Cheng Mao, a carbon steel foundry manufacturer in Guangdong, learned that carbon steel is not resistant to corrosion, and exposure to moisture, water, and salt water will cause air oxidation, discoloration, and corrosion of the blade.

The performance characteristics of carbon steel are no different from other steels, but the chromium content is very harmful, and there are other elements.

Coupled with chromium can improve the corrosion resistance of the blade.

Adding other elements, such as manganese and other elements can change the blade's stretchability, tensile strength, edge sharpness maintenance and toughness. The addition of this additional element increases the cost of steel and increases the difficulty of the production process of the heat treatment process. However, it can produce great benefits to customers.

result:

Stainless steel is resistant to oxidation, and it is not as good as carbon steel which must be maintained frequently.

There are different types of steels in these two types of steel, and different steels have different properties.

In the blade, the key is to maintain the sharpness of the cutting edge, toughness, hardness, and corrosion resistance.
