Product Details
W-1 tool steel is a general-purpose water-hardening tool steel featuring a 1.00% carbon content. It provides an outstanding combination of physical properties, characterized by an outer case that is abrasion-resistant, achieving hardness in the 60 Rockwell "C" range, while having a softer, ductile inner core. With a machinability rating of 100, W-1 is recognized as the easiest of all tool steels to machine, making it a preferred choice for various applications.
