Brief description
Klein designation:
CHRONIFER M-15
Class of steels:
1.4057/AISI–Martensitic stainless steel
Material number:
1.4057
Standard UNS:
RoHS 2 – 2011/65/EU:
Machinability:

Uses:
This steel is well adapted for medical, surgical and dental instruments. It is well indicated for the production of parts for many industries, such as i.e. automotive, chemical, oil and petrochemical, paper, agricultural, food, aerospace, instrumentation and precision mechanical engineering, natural energy extractions and conversions.
The CHRONIFER® M-15 steel has a high Cr and low S contents. It is ESR remelted. The low C and S contents, as well as the Ni addition enhance its good corrosion resistance. It has the second best corrosion resistance of all martensitic stainless steels after the powder metallurgy made CHRONIFER® M-15X steel. However, as for all martensitic stainless steels, it exhibits its best values in the quenched, tempered, polished and passivized condition. In this condition, it exhibits a good resistance to water and water steam (autoclave sterilization). Its high mechanical properties indicate it for numerous applications in various industries.
