CTS-BD1N(Carpenter) - CTS-BD1N is a high Carbon, high Chromium, Nitrogen martensitic stainless steel. Can be hardened in oil or air. CTS-BD1N was designed as an improvement or an evolution of the Carpenter CTS-BD1 stainless steel, which was also used in knives. Overall, CTS-BD1N has...
The CTS alloys fall into three categories, including low alloy martensitic stainless steels, bearing steels, and powder metals. Low alloy martensitic stainless steels incorporate only about 0.6 percent carbon, along with between 12 percent and 18 percent chromium. Their simple basic chemistry lends its...
