World Class Standards

High Speed Steel

Introduction


HHigh speed steel is steel that has the ability to machine & cut materials at high speed. The alloy contains carbon, chromium, vanadium, molybdenum, or tungsten and in some cases cobalt providing high resistance, fine robustness, high compression strength, and fine wear resistance.
If you're looking for high speed steel suppliers, you're likely seeking reliable sources for these specialised materials.
