CarTech CTS B70P alloy is a powder-metallurgy derivative of CarTech CRB-7 alloy offering enhanced wear resistance and hardness capability and similar corrosion resistance compared with CarTech 440C stainless steel. CarTech CTS B70P alloy is a high-chromium, air-hardening steel containing additions of molybdenum, vanadium and niobium. The fine, uniform carbide structure provided by the P/M processing improves edge retention and grinding/polishing characteristics which make the alloy an excellent candidate for cutlery applications.

Applications:
CarTech CTS B70P alloy is derived from a secondary hardening high-temperature bearing steel. The alloy offers a good combination of high hardness capability (e.g., HRC 63) wear resistance and corrosion resistance that has been used for cutlery, knives and a variety of cutting tools.
