Stellite 6K, a game-changer in knife-making, is earning its place among renowned knifemakers for its unique blend of rust-resistance and wear-resistance.
Stellite is a cobalt-chromium alloy used in pressurized water reactor (PWR) systems due to its excellent corrosion and wear resistance, radiation resistance, strength, and resistance to thermal fatigue. These properties ensure safe and reliable operation of PWRs, making stellite an essential material in nuclear power generation.
On Jan. 7th, there is a celebration to celebrate last year's achievements in SYTOP.
Stellite 6 vs stellite 12. As a kind of high temperature alloy, stellite series has many brands, there are many brands such as stellite 1, stellite 3, stellite 4, stellite 6 and stellite 12 and so on. Stellite 6 and stellite 12 are the most common grades.
Some of our customers will test the products via Brinell hardness tester, Vickers-hardness tester and Handheld hardness tester. Actually these are not accurate because the measurement principle conversion method is not special for stellite, so there must be some deviation.
Recently, cobalt prices have fluctuated greatly, the prices of products in the market may also vary greatly. There will also be many not actually cobalt products or reducing cobalt content and reducing costs. Then to know the way how to test the materials and products is very important.
