BLAZE delivers extraordinary surface hardness — even for unalloyed steel! On the Knoop scale, it achieves a hardness of 1800 to 2200. And in the familiar Rockwell C chart, which tops at at 72 HrC, BLAZE tops the scale with almost all Steel Alloys, with better results in most cases than Tungsten Carbide at a much lower cost.

It’s tougher than tungsten carbide, harder than titanium nitride, harder than hard chrome. And you don’t have to worry about the brittleness of other technologies.
