    Description
    This alloy is a High Speed, tungsten type tool steel. It is a deep hardening alloy capable of Rockwell C 64 hardness.

    Applications
    Generally used as cutting tools, broaches and cold extrusion punches, turning, planing and milling cutters for roughing work.

    Physical properties (avarage values) at ambient temperature
    Modulus of elasticity [103 x N/mm2]: 217
    Density [g/cm3]: 8.70
    Thermal conductivity [W/m.K]: 19.0
    Electric resistivity [Ohm mm2/m]: 0.65
    Specific heat capacity[J/g.K]: 0.46

    Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion 10-6 oC-1

    20-100oC 20-200oC 20-300oC 20-400oC 20-500oC 20-600oC 20-700oC
    10.0 10.5 10.8 11.2 11.3 11.4 11.6

    Soft Annealing
    Heat to 820-850oC, cool slowly in furnace to 550oC then air. This will produce a maximum Brinell hardness of 265.

    Stress Relieving
    Stress relieving to remove machining stresses should be carried out by heating to 600-650oC, holding for one hour at heat, followed by air cooling. This operation is performed to reduce distortion during heat treatment.

    Hardening
    Harden from a temperature of 1260-1290oC followed by oil, air quenching or warm bath at 550oC. Hardness after quenching is 63-66 HRC.

    Tempering
    Tempering temperature: 2x 560-580oC. Hardness after tempering is 64-65 HRC.

    Forging
    Hot forming temperature: 1150-900oC.

    Cold working

    In the annealed condition the alloy may be cold worked by conventional methods.

    Machinability
    Machinability of T4 is only fair. It ranks as 55% that of the W group water hardening simple tool steels.

    Corrosion Resistance
    Although this alloy contains appreciable amount of tungsten it is still not a corrosion resistant alloy. it will rust unless adequately protected.

    Welding
    The alloy may be welded but has a high tungsten content. Consult the alloy supplier for information relative to welding methods.
