Nicro 100 is a nitrogen matrix martensitic tool steel, developed to ensure high corrosion resistance, toughness and hardness, even at high temperatures.
Thanks to the pressure remelting technology under electro-slag (P.E.S.R.), this steel has a homogeneous and refined structure, obtaining:
✔ Exceptional corrosion resistance, ideal for aggressive environments
✔ High toughness even at high hardness (up to 58 HRc)
✔ Excellent dimensional stability after heat treatment
✔ Excellent polishability and workability
✔ Perfect surface for PVD coatings
These characteristics make it an innovative and versatile material, perfect for applications in the food, medical, pharmaceutical, plastics and off-shore sectors, where high resistance to corrosion and wear is required.
Main applications
✔ Mold inserts and caps for plastic
✔ Medical instruments and portioning units
✔ Components for pumps and measuring instruments
✔ Plasticizing screws and tools for powder compression
✔ Gears and worms
✔ Shredding knives and blades for the food industry
If you need a highly corrosion-resistant steel with excellent hardness and stability, Nicro 100® is the ideal solution for the most demanding applications.
