Maxival® is a technologically advanced process carried out on conventional stainless steels such as Type 304 and 316 that greatly improves machinability without jeopardize mechanical properties or resistance to corrosion.
Tile advantages offered to a machine shop when working with Maxival® process treated grades are:
- a greater number of machined pieces
- less tool wear
- a reduction of down times for tool replacement
