SPECIAL GRADES

Special steels

Whether in the form of scalpels, band saws, doctor blades or seat-belt springs, special steels are employed in fields as diverse as the medical, food, paper and automotive industries. With such a wide range of products, it is obvious the material is tailored to the application at hand.

The BILSTEIN GROUP delivers special steels with bespoke mechanical properties and microstructures, from soft, 100% sphereodized fine blanking grades, to ultra-strong, martensitic structures for tempering.

A range of further options are also available for these products, including color, brushed and polished finishes, and application-specific prepared edges.

Applications: Circular saws, band saws, chain saws, industrial blades
