M2 High Speed Steel Suppliers

M2 is the most popular high-speed steel with good all-round properties. We supply M2 rounds in the soft annealed condition to max. 262 HB.

Rounds can be bandsaw cut to your requirements.

Also available in flats.

 

Chemical Composition (%):

C Cr Mo V W
0,90 4,00 5,00 1,90 6,40
  • M2 High Speed Steel Properties

  • Good all-rough toughness, machinability & wear resistance
  • Moderate red hardness properties
  • Excellent base material for PVD/CVD coating

M2 steel is mainly used in a wide range of cutting tools and machine tools where demands for hot hardness are intermediate:

  • Twist drill bits
  • Knives
  • Reamers
  • Broaches
  • Milling cutters and milling tools
  • Taps
  • Metal power saws
  • Also suitable for cold work applications e.g. punching, forming & pressing

Soft Annealing
