Product Details
W-1 tool steel is a general purpose water-hardening tool steel with a carbon content of 1.00%. It features an excellent combination of physical properties, including an abrasion-resistant outer case that falls within the 60 Rockwell "C" range and a soft, ductile inner core. With a machinability rating of 100, W-1 is recognized as the easiest of all steels to machine, making it a preferred choice for various applications where both durability and machinability are essential.
