The grade itself is a hypereutectic steel and with the carbon content of around 1% capable to deliver 66HRC easily, after the quench.
Carbon V chemical composition is equivalent to the SAE standard for construction steels 50 100 (UNS G50986 or the German grade 1.3501)
Note: avoid tempering temperatures higher than 200°C because the steel will loose to much of its potential and between 200 and 300°C the is a area of
The 50100 "Carbon V" is rated as a construction steel, means unlike its high quality brothers out of ball bearing construction e.g. 52100, it has the
