Castable, corrosion resistant replacement for tool steel
(OP)
Need a castable, corrosion resistant replacement for tool steel. The present parts are cast in a tool steel with the following specifications. Tool Steel AISI D7, harden to 65RC, double temper to 59-60 RC, sub zero cool at minus 100 degrees F minimum for 6 hours after first temper. This works well, but need a "corrosion resistant" material to meet guidlines in the food industry. The application is for knife blades in a "pulper", which grinds food and paper waste. Needs to be castable since the blades are curved.

my company makes a special type of stainless tool steel called RN15X. It is very similar to an AISI D2 in its wear properties but offers stainless resistance similar to AISI 440 B / C stainless steels. Its also secondary hardenable so you would be able to do a PVD or CVD coating if this is necessary. We already use this for some food stuff applications.
If interested drop me a mail and I will send you a data sheet.
