It is known as one of the development projects of “High-Performance Die Steel and Its Applications”, which is one of the tasks of the “13th Five-Year Plan” of the National Key R&D Plan.
Industry-Academy-Research Project: Unique Rapid Solidification Electroslag Refining Process for Reinforcing Performance of Martensitic Stainless Steel Materials with Shanghai University and Beijing Iron and Steel Research Institute.
Technical Expertise
Focus on the production of 8Cr14MoV steel, using electric arc furnace smelting and LF furnace refining to reduce harmful inclusions and non-metallic elements as much as possible, and steel purity and uniformity are the best.
Advanced forging processes improve the grain structure, allow for removal of segregation and internal defects, and tailor the mechanical properties to meet the requirements of high-performance applications.
Raw Material Supply
Focused on providing high-performance stainless steel raw materials to meet the high requirements of applications like precision cutting tools and medical instruments.
Custom dimensions and surface treatment services (polishing/sandblasting/heat treatment, etc.) are also provided to meet customer’s specific requirements.
We are open and candid as well, as this is in line with our aim to help customers:
Furthermore, it’s a great combination of hard, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant competing with top brands in Europe, America and Japan.
Each manufacturing batch undergoes stringent testing for chemical composition and mechanical properties, coupled with comprehensive documentation, guaranteeing quality.
High performance at low price — a price/performance alternative to high-end brands.
Customized production periods! Standard-size orders – always delivered on time within 40 days.
High-end solutions for tough applications like Cold Work Die Steel, Chef Knives, Military Blades, and Scissors providing unparalleled value and assurance.
8Cr14MoV only needs to be heated to a certain temperature (1030~1050 ° C) so that alloying elements are uniformly dissolved in the austenite lattice to maintain uniform microstructure.
From austenitizing, it is quenched to form a martensitic structure to arrive at a greater hardness. It can ensure the wear resistance of 8Cr14MoV steel and keep sharp cutting edge.
8Cr14MoV steel then tempering in 200~300 ° C adjust hardness, reduce brittleness to enhance tool toughness and durability

8Cr14MoV stainless steel is one of those materials that provides decent hardness and great toughness. This addition of carbon and vanadium increases the steel’s ability to hold a sharp edge, while still being tough enough for everyday or heavy-duty use.
8Cr14MoV has 14% chromium content which makes it extremely corrosion resistant. It is also resistant to rust and requires little maintenance to keep the knife from going rust due to being a wet and humid environment.
8Cr14MoV is pretty easy to sharpen despite its hardness. It also is a huge benefit to users who enjoy keeping their tools at home sans commercial grade gear.
8Cr14MoV stainless steel is a versatile stainless that can be used for many different applications, including:
Ideal for kitchen environments where performance and hygiene are critical, its corrosion resistance and edge retention make it an excellent choice for cutting.
You can learn a lot more about the versatility of 8Cr14MoV in both outdoor tasks like camping, hunting, and fishing as it is relatively easy to sharpen and tough enough to withstand punishment.
If you’re using it for daily tasks, you can trust that an 8Cr14MoV knife will be consistently reliable and convenient for a multitude of day-to-day cutting purposes.
Is it possible to offer special surface treatment of finishing services?
Yes, we offer various surface treatment according to customer requests (polishing, sandblasting, heat treatment). You may also want to look for custom surface finishes that will enhance the look and corrosion resistance of 8Cr14MoV steel. We also have customized dimensions, precision cutting, and other processing services to serve different application requirements.
Can you handle large quantity production orders?
Absolutely. 8Cr14MoV materials in small batch and production in large scale. With our sophisticated manufacturing operations, you will always get a stable supply, good quality, and timely delivery for bulk orders, making us your perfect high-volume supply partner.
So how does 8Cr14MoV stack up to similar grades such as AUS-8?
8Cr14MoV offers comparable performance to AUS-8 in terms of hardness and corrosion resistance but often provides improved wear resistance and edge retention due to its optimized composition of carbon, vanadium, and molybdenum.
