lionSTEEL heat treatment procedure for all the blades
- lionSTEEL does not have the heat treatment equipment inside its facility, for this reason we are supported by a certified third part.
- Third part is: Trattamenti Termici Todesco SAS. ISO 9001:2015 (first issue 06 August 2007)
- Third part generates a Quality Control Certificate every run of heat treatment done.
- lionSTEEL can make a second HRC control inside the company with its own machine.
- All the HRC results must stay inside the fork of our data sheet.
- Every steel used by lionSTEEL has its own data sheet.
- The values represent, for us, the right hardness/elasticity balance.
- Value forks on the steels data sheets are the following ones:
C: Carbon | Cr: Chromium | Mn: Manganese | Si: Silicon | Mo: Molybdenum | V: Vanadium | Nb: Niobium | W: Wolfram | N: Nitrogen | lionSTEEL HRC | |
