ASTM T6/UNS T12006 High Speed Tool Steel

SUNS T12006 tungsten series drilling high speed steel has higher red hardness, high temperature hardness and wear resistance than UNS T12006 steel, but lower toughness. After quenching, the surface hardness can reach 64~66HRC, which can be used as turning tools, milling cutters, hobs, etc. for machining materials with hardness above 400HB under complex conditions (heavy load).
