BÖHLER N678 is a hardenable
Chromium steel with Molybdenum
and Vanadium addition and
• excellent corrosion resistance,
especially in salt water and
media containing chloride ions
• good hardenability and high
obtainable hardness after
hardening
(57 – 59 HRC)
• good wear resistance
• good machinability
• good polishability.
Application
Cutting tools of all kinds, requiring
higher corrosion resistance and a
durable cutting edge, e.g. knives for
the meat processing industry, bowl
cutter knifes.
Cutting tools, knife blades, knife
plates, etc. with high cutting
hardness and toughness.
Also for wear resistant components.
