Introducing the heat treatment of the precipitated hardening silicone alloy! We will solve issues related to the processing process.
Precipitation hardened stainless steel achieves high hardness through relatively low-temperature heat treatment, resulting in fewer issues such as distortion, cracking, and oxidation scale attachment compared to quenched steel. This contributes to the simplification of the processing process and shorter delivery times. Precipitation hardened silicon alloy features minimal dimensional changes during aging heat treatment and surface modification processes at temperatures below 500°C. Silicon alloy resolves processing process issues.

Company information
Silicolloy is a revolutionary new material that contains a large amount of silicon (silicon) and was developed using pure domestic technology. Silicolloy is a super alloy that possesses high strength, heat resistance (high-temperature oxidation resistance), corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high hardness, and low dimensional changes during heat treatment, all in one steel. Currently, many engineers (technicians and designers) are advancing its commercialization, contributing to new product development and total cost reduction through extended product lifespan. There are 'Silicolloy A2', which excels in overall balance as a precipitation-hardened stainless steel, and 'Silicolloy XVI', which has the highest hardness in the world as a precipitation-hardened type. Those who require both corrosion resistance and high hardness should definitely take note! In 2025, a new material called 'Axia Zero Series' will be developed. This new material is a precipitation-hardened stainless steel that not only has high corrosion resistance and high hardness but also high strength and high durability. 'Axia Zero3' achieves high hardness of 56-58 HRC, high corrosion resistance equivalent to austenitic types, and high strength in the 2000 MPa range. It features hardness obtained through precipitation hardening treatment at 480°C, which minimizes deformation and dimensional changes due to heat treatment and resolves various issues related to quenching.
