Wear-resistant steel - Import export

The microstructures inside duplex stainless steels are approximately 50 per cent austenite and 50 per cent ferrite, and consequently duplex products share the physical properties of both ferritic and austenitic grades. Duplex stainless steels are resistant to the cracking caused by chloride stress corrosion in austenitic grades, and have improved resistance to localised corrosion. This family of stainless steels has roughly twice the yield strength of their counterpart austenitic grades . Higher hardness values provide better wear resistance for high precision tubes. Duplex stainless steel tubes have high hardness and wear resistance propertiesDuplex steels are easily welded and formed, similar to austenitic grades. Depending on chromium, nickel and molybdenum content, duplex stainless steels are divided into four main categories: lean duplex, duplex, super duplex and hyper duplex. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

AMETEK offers a range of wear resistant tool steel powers used in P/M, MIM, and metal additive manufacturing. Tool steels use a combination of C, Cr, Mo, V, and W in an Fe based alloy to generate a carbide microstructure in the metal alloy. Powder Metallurgy (P/M) tool steels offer the highest grade of performance, especially in respect to toughness, due to the extremely fine and uniform distribution of carbides resulting from the atomization process. AMETEK offers multiple grades in the M, D, and T series of tool steels including M3-5, D-2, and T-15 among others. Each tool steel is optimized for its respective purpose to give exceptional properties. Some tool steels, such as our premium T-15 grade, can result in hardness near 70 HRC when appropriately processed and heat treated. Materials that have been routinely produced include M-2, M3-2, M3-5, M4-2, D2, and T15.
