Surgical instruments require approved high-performance BÖHLER steels with excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and edge retention. Key quality features include ultra-clean materials, full traceability, controlled heat treatment, and rigorous testing for safe, reliable use.
Surgical applications in medical technology require approved materials that meet the highest standards of precision, reliability, and biocompatibility. Instruments such as scalpels, forceps, scissors, and minimally invasive tools are exposed to repeated mechanical loading, sterilization cycles, and aggressive disinfectants. Material requirements therefore focus on high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and the ability to maintain sharp edges and dimensional stability over extended use. In addition, superior surface quality and cleanability are essential to meet strict hygiene and sterilization standards.
BÖHLER high-performance steels and alloys are specifically engineered and approved to fulfill these demanding surgical requirements. Advanced martensitic and precipitation-hardened stainless steels offer an optimized balance of hardness, toughness, and corrosion resistance, ensuring durability and consistent performance. Produced using advanced melting and remelting technologies, BÖHLER materials provide exceptional purity, low inclusion content, and homogeneous microstructures, which are critical for reliability and long service life. Key quality features include tight control of chemical composition, certified traceability, and validated heat treatment processes to achieve precise mechanical properties. Comprehensive testing, including corrosion resistance, edge retention, and surface integrity verification, ensures compliance with medical standards. BÖHLER materials enable safe, durable, and high-precision surgical solutions.
BÖHLER N685 est un acier résistant à la corrosion avec des ajouts de molybdène et de vanadium sous forme de barres, de fils, de pièces forgées. Ces produits sont généralement utilisés pour des pièces d’ingénierie et des applications médicales nécessitant une dureté allant jusqu’à 58 HRC et une résistance à l’usure, à la corrosion et à l’oxydation, mais leur utilisation n’est pas limitée à ces applications.
