Features of N690 steel

Martensitic alloy steel N690 is produced by the Vohleg-Uddeholm Gmbh&C corporation, which has its enterprises in Austria, Germany, South and North America. Another name for the alloy is Austrian cobalt stainless steel. Due to its high quality and operational characteristics and advantages, it is successfully implemented in many countries of the world for the manufacture of knives and other purposes.
Steel is produced by electroslag smelting technology. It has a uniformly distributed carbide structure of the crystal lattice in the absence of harmful impurities. As a result of heat treatment and forging, the impact toughness of the material increases without loss of hardness. The presence of alloying additives in the chemical composition of steel ensures resistance to corrosion.

Field of application
Steel is recognized as a good material for serial production of long-range and tactical knives, the technical characteristics of which allow operation in difficult and extreme conditions. Blades made of N690 steel are able to withstand not only longitudinal, but also strong lateral loads when acting on bends and twists.
Due to its resistance to corrosion and aggressive environments, steel is used in the manufacture of diving knives, harpoons for spearfishing and other sports equipment.
This steel is used in the manufacture of knives by such well-known European brands as Vokeg, Spyderco, Vepshmade and Echthema Ratio. Manufactured blades have excellent cutting properties, are strong, durable, sharpen well and hold an edge. The presence of alloying elements in the composition ensured high corrosion resistance while maintaining plasticity. If necessary, there is a possibility of thermal hardening up to 60 NKR.

The technical and physical characteristics of the alloy allow it to be used in mechanical engineering for the manufacture of tools, milling cutters, drills, parts of bearings and relevant components operating under high mechanical loads. The steel is highly wear resistant and can be heat treated.
Resistance to the effects of moisture and chemicals allows the use of steel in the food and pharmaceutical industry for the manufacture of cutting tools and grinders. At the same time, the ecological purity of the material and the complete absence of impurities are taken into account.
ANALOGUES
In terms of its composition, steel N690 is a close analogue of Russian steel 95X18, German X102SgMo17, Japanese / (3-10 and A115-10, French 2100СО17, American 440 С. In Sweden, an analogue of Sandvic 12С27 is produced).
Storage
Steel N690 contains:
■ 1.08% of carbon (C), which gives the material hardness and increases strength;
■ 17.3% chromium (Cg) to obtain anti-corrosion properties, increase wear resistance and change hardening conditions;
■ 1.1% molybdenum (Mo) to reduce brittleness, increase plasticity and resistance to high temperatures;
■ 0.1% vanadium (V) to increase metal elasticity and inertness to aggressive media;
■ 1.5% cobalt (C) increases heat resistance and improves mechanical properties;
■ 0.4% manganese (Mp) increases hardness;
■ 0.4% silicon (5|) to improve alloy stability and increase wear resistance.
The presence of cobalt in the chemical composition of the metal makes the crystal structure of N690 more uniform and resistant to mechanical loads.

PROS AND CONS OF N690 STEEL FOR KNIVES
The use of Austrian steel N690 allows the production of high-quality stainless knives for various purposes. Due to its physical and technical properties, the material is well processed, capable of heat treatment, is not prone to corrosion and is sold at an affordable price.
5*ee1 N690 is one of the best alloys for making beautiful wear-resistant blades. Simple sharpening and long-term preservation of the sharpness of the edge make use simple and convenient. You will never regret buying or making a knife from this steel.

Types of supplies
The high quality of Wohler N690 steel is ensured by the use of a unique rolling technology developed by the manufacturer. Metal sheets are subjected to repeated hot processing with rolling in the longitudinal and transverse directions. After that, the material is cold cut into strips.
Especially for the manufacture of knives, N690 steel is supplied to the rolled metal market in the form of steel strips 3-5 mm thick, 20-50 mm wide and 250 to 1000 mm long. The cross-section of the strips is rectangular or with a prepared longitudinal bevel, which eliminates the need for blacksmithing when making the blade. The steel may or may not have previous heat treatment.
All of this is very convenient, as it does not require operations to cut large sheets, which allows you to accurately determine the amount of necessary material and reduces the amount of waste.
Strips are sold individually. The price depends on the geometric dimensions of the product, thicknesses and types of preliminary factory processing. For the products of the metalworking industry, we supply a sheet 2-8 mm thick, the size stated in the contract. If necessary, you can order any analogue of steels of type N690. Sheet metal is sold by weight.

It is worth remembering that when using a knife for its intended purpose and with careful handling, the knife will serve you for a very, very long time.

Мікарта (Canvas-Micarta)
Мікарта - матеріал, що складається з полімерної плівки (на основі синтетичної смоли), склеєної з різними паперами та тканинами або іншими матеріалами подібної структури. Підбираючи відповідним чином колір основного матеріалу і смоли, що його зв'язує, можна отримати різні колірні композиції.

Мікарта тепла на дотик, не ковзає в руці. Найбільш поширені основні три типи мікарти: linen (лляне полотно, дрібне плетіння), canvas (різні тканини з великим плетінням), paper (паперова).

Мікарта - сучасний інноваційний матеріал, який має кращі якості, ніж у дерева і звичайного пластику. Мікарта абсолютно не контактує з водою, не насичується харчовими запахами, має гарний зовнішній вигляд, оброблюваність, довговічність, має різні кольори від однотонних до кольорових.

Завдяки перерахованим якостям, мікарта набула широкого поширення як матеріал для рукоятей ножів. Безпека мікарти підтверджена FDA (Управління контролю за харчовими продуктами та лікарськими препаратами США).
