Precision Ground 440C Stainless Steel Bar - Tool Steel Alternative, ±0.01mm Accuracy
precision-ground 440C stainless steel bar is a revolutionary alternative to traditional tool steels, engineered for ultra-high-wear, high-precision applications where dimensional accuracy and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable. With a hardness of 58–60 HRC and a mirror-like surface finish (Ra ≤0.1μm), this martensitic stainless steel bar combines the edge retention of tool steels with the rust resistance of premium stainless alloys. Ideal for aerospace micro-components, semiconductor manufacturing tools, and luxury watch mechanisms, its ±0.01mm tolerance ensures flawless performance in nanoscale environments. Advanced cryogenic treatment refines carbide distribution, eliminating micro-fractures for extended fatigue life.

① Nano-Precision Grinding
Diamond-wheel ground bars achieve sub-micron tolerances, critical for MEMS (Micro-Electromechanical Systems) and optical alignment components.
② Corrosion-Meets-Hardness
Chromium carbides in a martensitic matrix resist galling and acid exposure, outperforming D2 or M2 tool steels in humid or chemical-laden settings.
③ Cryogenic Edge Retention
Deep cryogenic tempering enhances wear resistance by 30% compared to standard 440C, ideal for surgical laser parts or fuel injector nozzles.
④ Vacuum & Ultra-Clean Ready
Non-gassing surface finish meets ISO Class 4 cleanroom standards for semiconductor fabrication and space-grade mechanisms.
⑤ Anti-Galling Coatings
Optional TiAlN or DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coatings reduce friction coefficients to ≤0.15, extending tool life in high-cycle applications.
⑥ Micro-Deburring Tech
Proprietary edge-blending eliminates sub-5μm burrs, essential for microfluidic chips and biomedical implant machining.
Why This Product?
Transcending traditional tool steel limitations, the 440C precision bar bridges the gap between extreme mechanical performance and environmental resilience. Its fusion of sub-micron accuracy, vacuum compatibility, and anti-corrosion properties makes it the material of choice for industries where failure is not an option—from nanotech labs to interstellar exploration.
