A few days ago, the customer  M2 steel has been completed. This is a very high requirement for the tolerance of M2  steel. Once customers have also looked for different counterparts to do this M2, but because many M2 tool sheets of steel do not offer accurate tolerances. because the M2 tool steel is special high-speed steel, and M2 tool steel contains high-value alloying elements such as tungsten, molybdenum, chromium and vanadium, M2 The tool steel is more expensive than other special steels. From the production of the M2  steel to the post-processing, it must be cautious and slightly wrong. The whole batch of goods must be scrapped.

The factory was scrapped a lot because of the tolerance processing, resulting in several tons of M2 steel scrap, the cost is very expensive. Due to the very high tolerance requirements of the M2  steel, we package the M2 steel in wooden boxes for each customer in better and more comprehensive use of raw materials. Each wooden box is equipped with 2 tons of M2  steel.

the composition of M2 tool steel

Also, M2 steel also be named as wind steel or front steel, it means hardening even when cooled in the air during quenching, and it is very sharp. It is a complex alloy steel containing tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, vanadium, cobalt and other carbide forming elements. The total amount of alloying elements is about 10 to 25%. It maintains high hardness under high heat cutting (about 500 ° C) and HRC can be above 60. This is the main characteristic of high-speed steel *** – red hardness.

However, after quenching and low-temperature tempering, carbon tool steel has high hardness at room temperature, but when the temperature is higher than 200 °C, the hardness drops sharply, and the hardness at 500 °C has dropped to a similar degree to the annealing state. The ability to cut metal is completely lost, which limits the use of carbon tool steel for cutting tools. High-speed steel, because of its good red hardness, makes up for the fatal shortcomings of carbon tool steel and can be used to make cutting tools.

M2 steel is a demand by Mexico, Argentina, the United States, Germany mostly, customers are very satisfied with the quality of our company’s M2 tool steel. Singapore, Malaysia, and other trading companies also like to buy M2 steel with us, because our M2 steel delivery is fast, and the cooperation M2 tool steel suppliers are particularly numerous, the price is the most competitive in the industry and will calculate for customers At the lowest cost, we can purchase the most cost-effective M2 steel.

How to choose the M2 tool steel that is most suitable for your company?

First of all, you need to take the main products of your company. The size of the M2 steel is used by your company. Does it have a dimensional tolerance requirement for the M2 steel, and is the M2  steel black or shiny? What is the hardness requirement of M2  steel? M2 steel requires the state to be annealed or tempered? Is there a straightness requirement? Whether there are grain size requirements, whether it is required for microscopic organization, etc., all relevant technical data of steel for M2  steel. We will recommend the M2 steel that suits you best.

Otai is a stable and reliable supplier for fortune 500 companies at home and abroad, such as thyssenkrupp, china north industries group corporation limited.

Today, let’s talk about the M42 high speed steel, Other Known Names are 1.3247, HS 2-10-1-8, S500, E M42, REX M42^®, Dynamax. M42 is a molybdenum series high-speed steel alloy with an additional 8 or 10 percent cobalt, it has superior red hardness and wearing resistance as compared to conventional high-speed steels. This allows for shorter cycle times in production environments due to its higher cutting speeds and from the increase in time between tool changes. M42 steel costs less when compared to those same tools made of carbide.

Recently, one of our client from Italy bought M42 steel 15tons from our company, mainly apply to high cutting tools such as drills, he is satisfied with our product.
