kuivaterästä
Kuivaterästä is a Finnish term that translates to "dry steel" or "lean steel." It refers to steel that has undergone a specific heat treatment process known as tempering. This process involves reheating the hardened steel to a temperature below its critical point and then cooling it. The primary purpose of tempering is to reduce the brittleness that results from the hardening process. By carefully controlling the tempering temperature and time, manufacturers can achieve a desired balance between hardness and toughness in the steel.
The tempering process redistributes internal stresses within the steel and allows for the formation of fine
Kuivaterästä finds application in a wide range of tools and components where a combination of wear resistance
