Question 40 Cp??

Anybody used any of this? Any info out about it? It is supposed to be a particle version of 440C - at least that's what the manufacturer data sheet said. Has a little lower Austenizing temp than 440C but similar tempering. Pop has some....I forgot the manufacturers name.

For the most part a powder metal version of 440C. If you like 440C you'll like this more !

Thanks, Mete. I bookmarked that one.

Now that Crucible has more or less melted it's great to see Carpenter get into the game.
