DIN 1.4116: bearing steel for the manufacture of ball bearings, rollers and bearing rings. It has high uniform hardness and wear resistance as well as high elastic limit.
4116 (full name DIN 1.4116) is a sort of bearing steel, its biggest feature is corrosion, wear resistance, chromium and vanadium content is especially high, so its price is also not low (mainly vanadium cost), but the cutting tool will not be very good polishing and blade, if the hardness is worse, it will have a better advantage.

As an active participant in the national 13th Five-Year Plan, we were integral in R&D on this project which resulted in the “High-Performance Die Steel and Its Applications” program, backed by government support and financial subsidies that have contributed to our leadership position in advanced material innovation.
Established collaborative relationship with well-known research institutions such as Shanghai University and Beijing Iron & Steel Research Institute, developed a rapid solidification electroslag resolvent process basis for the production of martensitic stainless steel. This innovation guarantees unprecedented material performance and consistency.
Focusing on high-quality stainless steel raw materials, it is your production line. This ensures that your needs will be met from small batch to high-volume orders with a constant and reliable supply.
We are sincere and honest to achieve teh purpose of serving customers:
Matching with high-end brands across Europe, America and Japan, we produce stainless steel materials that are up to the stringent Global industry standards.
With a focus on low Cost of Ownership, our products are cost adequate and low in price when compared to the foreign products.
We listen to customers with flexible production cycle of customized products / standard sizes can be delivered on-time in 40 days.
We are able to provide custom sizes, surface treatment (polishing, sandblasting, etc.), and cutting processes for specific applications.

Because 5Cr15MoV has high chromium content, the blade does not easily rust, making it an ideal option for wet or outdoor conditions. 5Cr15MoV, with its rust resistance, is best for people who require daily usage of a knife which is tough, needs very little maintenance, and lasts as long as possible.
5Cr15MoV after reasonable heat treatment, HRC can generally reach 54 ~ 57, this hardness is a soft to medium hardness of steel, more suitable for kitchen knife or multipurpose knife, for the basic cut work.
And certainly the high toughness of 5Cr15MoV means that whenhe decreased in hardness, its toughness would often greatly increased, for 5Cr15MoV is also very suitable, such as he is very hard, so that he can withstand impact or bending can not burst easily. It will not easily damage the blade, crack or split from daily use.
5Cr15Mov has good corrosion resistance and hardness, so it is easy to use and maintain for daily life.
Tailored for creating high-precision cutting implements.
Medical Instruments:
Used in surgical instruments for its corrosion resistance and ability to keep a sterile edge.
5Cr15MoV provides great resistance to corrosion, ensuring it does not rust from being stored for long periods of time. But for best performance, they do want to be properly maintained. Clean and dry the material well before store, and coat a thin layer of mineral oil to the surface. Keep it in a dry, moisture-free place for optimal performance.
2.Do you also do surface treatment and customization?
Yes, we have a variety of surface treatment including polishing, sandblasting, heat treatment, etc. We also provide special dimensions, precision cutting, and other customized processing services based on application requirements.
3.Do you provide high-volume production orders?
Absolutely. We also focus on small and large scale production aspects to maintain a constant supply of high quality products. With timely delivery and the capability to handle high-volume requirements, courtesy of our efficient production processes and inventory systems.
4.What are the best uses for 5Cr15MoV?
Due to its unique amalgamation of corrosion resistance, toughness, and moderate hardness, 5Cr15MoV is a great choice for kitchen knives, scissors, surgical tools, and other high-precision cutting instruments. It is also well-suited to high-wear parts and components needing durable performance.
