M42 steel is high cobalt toughness high speed steel. M42 tool steel is mainly used for high-toughness precision wear-resistant hardware cold stamping dies. M42 tool steel can also be used for cooling in cutting tools and knives. Steel has high hardness, up to 70HRC, good thermal hardness, high hardness at high temperatures, and easy grinding. Cutting tools made of this steel can cut iron-based high-temperature alloys, cast high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys and ultra-high-strength steels, etc., but the toughness is slightly poorer, and the lower limit should be used for quenching temperatures. Due to its good grindability, M42 tool steel can be used to manufacture various high-precision complex tools.our company are tool steel suppliers
