2. Tool steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_steel

   Wrought iron. Tool steel is any of various carbon steels and alloy steels that are particularly well-suited to be made into tools and tooling, including cutting tools, dies, hand tools, knives, and others. Their suitability comes from their distinctive hardness, resistance to abrasion and deformation, and their ability to hold a cutting edge at ...

3. Tool steel 1.2344 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_steel_1.2344

   Tool steel 1.2344 (also known as AISI H13 steel or just H13 [1]) is a tool steel grade standardised for hot working. The main feature of this grade is the combination of alloyed elements of chromium, molybdenum and vanadium, Cr-Mo-V, which provides a high wear resistance to thermal shock. It is well known as for its great strength, and heat ...

4. Steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

   Category 2 : Steel specified by chemical composition. In addition to the descriptive steel grade naming system indicated above, within EN 10027-2 is defined a system for creating unique steel grade numbers. While less descriptive and intuitive than the grand names they are easier to tabulate and use in data processing applications.

5. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

   High-speed steel ( HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material . It is often used in power-saw blades and drill bits. In addition, it is often used in bowl gouges and skew for woodturning. [1] It is superior to high- carbon steel tools in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper ...

6. Low-alloy special purpose steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Low-alloy_special_purpose_steel

   Low-alloy special purpose steel is a grade of tool steel characterized by its proportion of iron to other elements, the kind of elements in its composition, and its treatment during the manufacturing process. The three ASTM established grades of low-alloy special purpose steel are L2, L3, and L6. [1] This grade originally contained L1, L4, L5 ...

7. Vanadis 4 Extra - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadis_4_Extra

   Vanadis 4 Extra. Vanadis 4 Extra is a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloyed tool steel produced by Uddeholms AB. It is intended for powder metallurgy cold forming operations on materials such as annealed austenitic stainless steel, mild carbon steel, copper and aluminium .

8. Tempering (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempering_(metallurgy)

   Tempering is a heat treatment technique applied to ferrous alloys, such as steel or cast iron, to achieve greater toughness by decreasing the hardness of the alloy. The reduction in hardness is usually accompanied by an increase in ductility, thereby decreasing the brittleness of the metal.

9. Silver steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_steel

   Silver steel is common tool steel that is supplied as a centerless ground round bar (with tolerances similar to that of drill bit ). The name comes from the highly polished appearance of the rods; there is no silver in the alloy. Amongst other applications, it has been widely used to make such things as punches, engravers, and screwdrivers.
