Greek Ascoloy is a hardenable chromium-nickel-tungsten martensitic alloy. This alloy is an extremely deep hardening grade used for application where high resistance to tempering and stress-corrosion cracking are desired. It also has a superior creep strength, resistance to tempering with the properties of the standard chromium grades of stainless steel.
Of the 400 series of stainless steels, 400C has the highest carbon content and moderate corrosion resistance and can heat-treat to the highest harness of RC 60. (In contrast, 416 is normally heat treated to RC 26/32)
17-7 stainless steel is a stable, chromium-nickel-aluminum precipitation hardened stainless steel that provides high strength and hardness, excellent fatigue properties, moderately resistant to corrosion, good formability, and minimum distortion upon heat treatment.
303 Stainless machines well and cuts clean and maintains it resistance to corrosion in temperatures up to 1500 degrees F. Good applications include repeat machining, fittings and fasteners.
