high speed steel United Kingdom

"Schnellarbeitsstahl" is a German term for high-speed steel, a type of tool steel renowned for its exceptional hardness, toughness, and heat resistance. It is predominantly used in the manufacturing industry for cutting, drilling, and machining applications that demand high-speed operation and generate extreme heat. This steel is widely employed in the production of cutting tools, such as drill bits, milling cutters, and saw blades. Schnellarbeitsstahl is typically sold in the form of semi-finished products like bars, rods, and sheets, which are then processed by tool manufacturers according to their specific requirements. The availability of this steel allows for the fabrication of durable and efficient tools that can withstand the rigors of intense industrial use.
