Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
h9 is a standardized ISO tolerance for precision bars. It guarantees that the diameter will never be oversized (0/- tolerance), allowing for a perfect fit into standard bearings, sleeves, or pre-drilled holes without additional machining.
Yes. If your application requires high hardness and wear resistance, we recommend Martensitic grades such as 420J2 or 431. These can be heat-treated to achieve superior mechanical properties for tools and frictional components.
