Ultra-Wear-Resistant 440C Stainless Steel Bars
 |
One of the hardest types of stainless steel after heat treating, 440C offers excellent wear and abrasion resistance. It’s often used for bearings, valves, and knife blades. 440C has even more carbon than 440A, making it harder but less tough. That means 440C is more likely to break rather than bend when absorbing impact. This material maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 800° F.
Rolled—Bars with rolled edges are also known as true bar; the edges are more precise than sheared edges.

Ultra-Wear-Resistant 440C Stainless Steel Rods
The high carbon content in this 440C stainless steel helps it withstand abrasion and wear better than any other stainless steel. Like tool steel, it can be heat treated to become extremely hard. It also maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 800° F. However, it’s more likely to break than bend from impacts. It’s often used to make bearings and valves.
