Uses: The CHRONIFER 108 steel is suitable for applications requiring both a high strength combined with a high corrosion resistance. These properties indicate it for regular bone surgery implants and for joint replacement prosthesis and implants. Its particularly high toughness is of interest for special uses. Its high mechanical properties, fatigue resistance, corrosion resistance and its non allergenic properties legitimate this steel as the material of choice for medical, surgical and dental instruments, orthodontic applications, components for the watch exterior and for hypoallergenic jewelry, ornament and decoration items.
