Industrial Razor Series 2: What are the differences between various materials of industrial razors?
2025-09-18
Although industrial razors are small, the material they are made of determines their lifespan and performance. Carbon steel is cheap but prone to wear, while stainless steel with coating is corrosion-resistant and cuts smoothly. Ceramic coating further enhances wear resistance, and tungsten carbide, with its extremely high hardness and durability, becomes the preferred choice for high-strength cutting. This article will help you quickly understand the advantages and application scopes of different material industrial razors through comparative analysis and application scenario recommendations.
