15Cr Martensitic Stainless (var. 7)

metal

This is a martensitic stainless steel with 15% chromium, elevated carbon content (~1.16%), and molybdenum alloying, formulated for high hardness and wear resistance. Typical applications include tool steels, precision cutting instruments, and wear-resistant pump components where corrosion resistance must be balanced against the need for exceptional hardness and edge retention. The cobalt addition (~13%) is notable and suggests potential aerospace or high-temperature applications, setting this variant apart from standard 15Cr martensitic grades by enhancing toughness and thermal fatigue resistance in demanding environments.

Quality & Standards

Industry-Specific

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
