Composition of 0.05%-0.25% carbon and up to 0.4% manganese. Also known as mild steel, it is a low cost material that is easy to shape. While not as hard as higher-carbon steels, its surface hardness ...
Tool steels contain tungsten, molybdenum, cobalt and vanadium in varying quantities to increase heat resistance and durability, making them ideal for cutting and drilling equipment.
Stainless steels generally contain between 10-20% chromium as the main alloying element and are valued for high corrosion resistance. With over 11% chromium, steel is about 200 times more resistant ...
Cobalt Steel is very similar to High Speed Steel. Its identifier is M40CO or M42. Most drills made of Cobalt have a brownish gold tint and are marked with their identifier. Cobalt is a step up from ...
Alloy steels contain alloying elements (e.g. manganese, silicon, nickel, titanium, copper, chromium and aluminum) in varying proportions in order to manipulate the steel's properties, such as its ...
Mild steel is made of low carbon components of ingot iron. This is a chemically pure type of iron which is heated with coke and gypsum or lime at high temperatures in a blast furnace. The right ...
Which can include High Carbon Steel and High Alloy Steel, are the softest and usually the cheapest of the seven types we offer. Many woodworking tools are made from this material. Many craftsmen ...
