1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) Stainless Steels

1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) steel is a martensitic stainless steel. It has a higher chromium and molybdenum content compared to 1.4034. As a result, the 1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) steel material is characterized by high hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. Additionally, due to its suitability for high-temperature use, it is used in equipment exposed to heat. The 1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) material is also suitable for various mechanical processes like CNC machining, milling, and other machining operations due to its machinability.

1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) steel is typically used to produce cutting tools, knives, scissors, razors, dental instruments, surgical tools, fret saw blades and other cutting implements that do not require high hardness expectations. The 1.4122 (X39CrMo17-1) material provides high-temperature resistance and wear resistance, and its high hardness and sharpness characteristics make it ideal for cutting applications.

1.4122 steel is also used in the food, chemical, and other industries. This material offers high corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance.

For applications requiring higher hardness, 1.4112 (X90CrMoV18) may be preferred.
