Stainless Steel

Most stainless steel used for cutting fruits and vegetable are:

  • Austenitic Stainless Steel: Non-magnetic with a higher corrosion resistance, but softer in hardness. 
  • Martensitic Stainless Steel: Like 410, 420 and 440 stainless can be heat treated to a higher hardness for longer wear resistance. They are not as corrosion resistant but this can be offset with surface conditioning. 
  • Ferritic Stainless Steel: Offered by special request only. This grade cannot be hardened or strengthened with heat treatment. There are other specialty stainless steel grades that we can use to improve wear and/or corrosion resistance.
