RECA INOX bits are vacuum oil hardened. These bits offer the relevant hardness and strength properties required for stainless steel screw connections.

Field of Application:

HEX hexagon socket screws made of stainless steel

Advice:

Although stainless steel is considered "rust-proof", precautions must be taken during processing to prevent "extraneous rust". This rust is caused by particles that adhere to standard steel materials. Such particles penetrate the surface of the stainless steel and transform into rust through exposure to oxygen. This can happen when tools made of conventional steel are used, for example. Rust can develop on these tools due to abrasion. Screwing presents a particular risk - contact is made with the screw, resulting in increased wear!

Stainless steel needs tools made from stainless steel!

With our RECA Inox bits, the user can be sure that no extraneous rust will develop when processing stainless steel screws.
