Material help !!!! High hardness - non ferous material???
(OP)
I am looking for a material to try and suit all of my customers specs. They would like to see something non-ferrous which can be hardened to Rc-60. I don't think anything like this exists (and is readily available) so I am trying to come up with the next best thing. Any ideas? I thought about 440c stainless but it's magnetic, or AMPC0-25 gets me Rc40 ish I think.

Why do you need this hardness for weld tooling? Do you just need surface hardness at 60 HRc?

A better bet would be a titanium alloy that has the surface hardened (e.g. nitrogen diffusion hardening, diamond-like coating, etc.).
