Outokumpu and Sidenor today announced a partnership to jointly market Prodec high machinability bar in Europe. Sidenor is a leading special and stainless bar supplier located in Spain. As part of the partnership Sidenor will produce and distribute hot rolled round peeled bars using Outokumpu’s Prodec treated feedstock material. Through the partnership Outokumpu and Sidenor will together be able to offer Prodec round bar in the complete size range 6mm to 350mm. Prodec range is available in grades 304L/4307, 316L/4404, 303/4305 and 17-4PH. These are suitable for machining applications such as fasteners, valves, pressure fittings, nuts, bolts and screws, gears, shafts, and bearings. Says John Stansfield, head of sales for Outokumpu long product Europe: “We’re very pleased to announce this partnership with Sidenor. Together we can offer a full range of Prodec bar to our customers in Europe. We’re seeing very good interest for Prodec bar from both distributors and machine shops.” Prodec grades now offer industry’s best machining speeds. According to our tests (V15 test), Prodec can achieve machining speeds up to 300 m/minute, resulting in a double tool life compared to competing materials in the market. By using Outokumpu Prodec, customers can optimize machining speeds to gain significant cost savings per component (up-to 50% savings depending on the application).
