1.2085 stainless steel is a martensitic grade of stainless. It is magnetic and hardenable with rust resistant properties. 1.2085 stainless is characterised by having a 0.28-0.38 carbon, and 15-17% chromium content. This mix of analysis gives 1.2085 stainless steel an outstanding corrosion resistance and exceptional wear properties after heat treatment. Superior to 410 and 416 type stainlesses for most applications. 1.2085 stainless steel has good ductility in the annealed condition, but is capable of achieving 55HRC after treatment. Optimal corrosion resistance is realised when 1.2085 is surface ground and polished after hardening.
Applications of DIN 1.2085 Grade Material Grade steel 1.2085 is widely used in various industries due to its excellent properties.
