SS strip with high hardness
SS strip with high hardness
(OP)
I'm looking for a stainless steel strip material with a hardness greater than 550HV. It is for a blade like component that cleans sand out between the disks of a disk stack. The current blades are 0.012" thick and are made of a spring steel of about 540 HV but they are not standing up to the abrasive/corrosive service. I thought about a 440C but couldn't find this in strip form. Does anyone know of any stainless steels that can provide the hardness I need but also come in strip form??

It's pretty expensive but if you only need a little you might try Sandvik in Benton Harbor MI. Im sure that Sandvik will have an appropriate grade/gague/temper for you.
