Steel Properties
1.4116 is a straight chromium martensitic stainless steel which combine the superior wear resistance of high carbon alloy with excellent corrosion resistance of chromium stainless steels. 1.4116 is magnetic in both the annealed and hardened conditions. Maximum corrosion resistance is attained only in the fully hardened condition.
