· KVN3

KVN3 is a vanadium-containing tool steel or high-speed steel variant, part of the vanadium carbide reinforced alloy family designed for extreme wear and thermal resistance. It is primarily used in cutting tools, die-casting dies, and high-temperature structural applications where hardness and toughness must be maintained under severe mechanical and thermal stress. The vanadium alloying additions provide superior wear resistance and red hardness compared to conventional tool steels, making it favored in applications requiring prolonged tool life and minimal dimensional change at elevated temperatures.

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.
