High speed steel hss or hs is a subset of tool steels commonly used as cutting tool material.
Cutting tool steel grades.
A tough and highly wear resistant grade.
Sharper cutting edges provide for better burr control lower tool pressure holding tighter tolerances and reducing work hardening.
Ic903 h01 h10 p05 p15 m10 m20 s10 s20 al tec tiain ultra fine grain carbide with 12 cobalt tialn pvd coated grade.
As a result tool steels are suited for use in the shaping of other materials.
Astm s steel standards are instrumental in classifying evaluating and specifying the material chemical mechanical and metallurgical properties of the different types of steels which are primarily used in the production of mechanical components industrial parts and construction elements as well as other accessories related to them.
Used for up to 62 hrc hardened steel titanium nickel based alloys and stainless steel at high speeds and medium feeds.
The most common applications of a grade tool steels include but are not limited to.
High speed tool steel cutting tools t grade and m grade tool steels are used for cutting tools where strength and hardness must be retained at temperatures up to or exceeding 760 degrees celsius or 1 400 degrees fahrenheit m grade tool steel was developed to reduce the amount of tungsten and chromium required t 1 is the most common t grade.
Steel hard alloys and carbon steel at medium to high cutting speeds.
T1000a t1500a uncoated cermet grade.
Their outstanding cutting performance is due to the grinding of ultra sharp cutting edges.
A 2 is an air hardening steel containing a medium amount of alloying material chromium.
It has good machinability along with a balance of wear resistance and toughness.
The machinability of a grade tool steels is quite good.
Tool steel refers to a variety of carbon steel and alloy steel that are particularly well suited to be made into tools their suitability comes from their distinctive hardness resistance to abrasion and deformation and their ability to hold a cutting edge at elevated temperatures.
T1500z t2500z coated cermet grades for steel turning.
Relentless pursuit of better cutting performance ntk takes pride in its carbide grade series.
In addition they have great wear resistance and toughness properties.
Air hardening a grades this is a very versatile all purpose tool steel that is characterized by low distortion factor during heat treatment due to the increased chromium content.
Typical applications of w grade tool steel include cold heading cutting tools and knives embossing reamers and cutlery.
