What is the strongest tool steel?

Shock-resisting tool steels are among the strongest tool steels. They are designated as group S steels according to the AISI classification system. These steels include the S1, S2, S5, S6, and S7 type steels. The hardenability of group S steels vary from shallow hardening to deep hardening.

What is HSS co8?

This alloy is a high speed, tungsten type tool steel. It is a deep hardening alloy capable of Rockwell C 64 hardness. Applications: Generally used as cutting tools, broaches and cold extrusion punches, turning and milling cutters for roughing work.

What is M35 steel?

M35 steel is an internationally used super-hard high-speed steel containing cobalt with high wear resistance, high pressure resistance and sintering resistance. M35 has good machinability,toughness,hardness,wear resistance and cutting ability.

Where can I buy high speed tool steel?

Our salespeople have years of experience in the tool steel business and can take care of your needs in a hurry. We stock all standard grades and sizes of tool steel and high speed steel as well as specialty grades.

What is the chemical composition of tool steel?

The chart below shows the typical chemical composition and hardness of our high-speed tool steels. You will find this broken down by our different grades of M2, M4, M7, M42, PM M4, PM T15, PM A11, PM M48, PM 23, PM 30 and PM 60.

What kind of steel is used for cutting tools?

Such as high strength steel, medium strength steel, cold rolled steel, alloy steel and etc. It also is usually used to make cutter gear, threading tool and cold work mold base. But is not able to use to make complex cutting tools which with high degree of accuracy.

What makes cobalt the best high speed steel?

It is cobalt high speed steel with a high content of carbon and vanadium. It has great wear resistance and hardness. And it has good temper resistance and hot hardness. So its service life is longer than other high speed steel. It is the perfect choice for the material which is difficult to processing.
