What is CPM 10V material?

CPM 10V® powder metal tool steel is a versatile air hardening tool and die steel which provides extremely high wear resistance in combination with relatively high impact toughness. A very large volume of hard vanadium carbides provides the high wear resistance.

Is CPM 10V stainless?

CPM 10V offers better wear resistance and edge retention than 154CM. Both steels have similar toughness. On the other hand, 154CM shines in corrosion resistance because it is stainless steel; it contains high amounts of Chromium in its element than 10V.

Is CPM 9V good steel?

CPM® 9V is a wear resistant cold work steel with high toughness of the CPM® tool steel family. It combines a high density with a tough matrix, resulting in a high wear and creep resistant tool steel with a high toughness and a good compressive strength.

Is Nitro V better than S35VN?

Nitro V steel vs S35VN Nitro-V is tougher than S35VN, it doesn’t hold an edge as well as S35VN despite the fact that they offer almost similar hardness of 61HRC. S35VN offers better wear resistance than Nitro-V due to the higher amounts of vanadium, nitrogen, and chromium that aid in the formation of hard carbides.

Is Nitro V tough?

Nitro-V has very good toughness compared with other steels. It has slightly lower toughness than AEB-L for unknown reasons. It is significantly tougher than the powder metallurgy stainless steels like M390, Elmax, and S35VN. Therefore Nitro-V would be well suited to knives requiring good toughness.

What is CPM 9V?

CPM 9V® is a powder metal tool steel that provides very high wear resistance in combination with impact toughness. CPM 9V® may be used in unique tooling applications for improved wear resistance compared to D-2 and other tool steels. CPM 9V® Powder Metal quantity.

What steel is nitro V comparable to?

Nitro-V does indeed look very similar to AEB-L, having the same C, Cr, and Si along with a minor difference in Mn. The nitrogen content is the same as 14C28N, which may simply be due to limits in nitrogen additions with conventional steel production.

What is @CPM 10V?

CPM 10V is a unique tool steel made by the Crucible Particle Metallurgy process. It is designed with a tough, air hardening base analysis with added high carbon and vanadium for exceptionally good wear resistance, toughness and strength for cold and warm work tooling applications.

What is CPM 10V steel hardness?

A standard heat treatment hardness rating of CPM 10V is 255/277. Among the wide array of CPM 10V steel knives available, here’s a shortlist of a few blades we recommend.

What is the difference between CPM 10v and CPM S110V?

CPM S110V or S90V is very close to 10V, although 10V is ahead of that despite them being quite close in comparison. However, CPM 10V can be a bit difficult to sharpen.

What is the AISI grade for CPM 10V?

CPM-10V was assigned the standard grade name of AISI A11. This was one of the last tool steels given an AISI designation, as AISI discontinued the publication of their Product Manuals in 1981.
