Steel N690 - 4 x 30 x 1000 mm
Stainless steel from the Austrian manufacturer Böhler with a high carbon content, enriched with cobalt. After hardening, it creates a very durable blade with high durability. It is suitable for the production of kitchen, hunting and outdoor knives, it is also used for the production of surgical cutting tools and disc knives in the meat industry. It has excellent flexibility and hardness, 58 to 60 HRC. The material is well machined, easy to sharpen, requires almost no additional maintenance.

Supplied material
The material is delivered in annealed condition.
There may be scale or surface corrosion on the surface.
Some material may be descaled by sandblasting at the factory.
Depending on the production technology, the material may not be perfectly flat.
Microcracks may be present on the surface of the material during production, therefore it is recommended to grind from the top layer approx. 0.1 - 0.15 mm.
The material is divided by a water jet, laser technology or a band saw.
In the case of laser cutting of the material, the edge may be turbid after cutting, so when subsequently cutting the material with a band saw, use a weak edge structure to grind it so as not to dull the saw band.
We will send the chemical composition of the specific purchased steel, upon request.
Dimensional tolerances
Material thickness tolerance: +/- 0.28 mm
Material width tolerance: +/- 1.0 mm
Material length tolerance: +/- 3.0 mm
