Steel K390 Microclean, 3 x 40 x 1000 mm

High-performance tool steel, produced by the powder metallurgy method, for cold work. Designed for the most demanding operations in industrial machining and forming.
It stands out for its extremely high abrasion resistance, high pressure resistance and excellent toughness even at high hardness.
Thanks to these properties, BÖHLER K390 MICROCLEAN steel is also used for the production of premium knives and cutting tools, where the best cutting properties of the material and high durability of the tool are required.
Additional information about the material: K390 CZ and K390 EN.

Supplied material

The material is delivered in an annealed state.
There may be scale or surface corrosion on the surface.
Some material may already be descaled by sandblasting.
According to the production technology, the material may not be perfectly straight.
Microcracks may occur on the surface of the material from production, so it is recommended to sand off approx. 0.1 - 0.15 mm from the top layer.
The material is split with a water jet, laser technology or a band saw.
In the case of cutting the material with a laser, the edge may be cloudy after the cut, so when cutting the material with a band saw, we recommend first sanding off the weak layer of the edge to avoid dulling the saw band.
We will send the chemical composition of the specific purchased steel, upon request.
