Astm M2 Cutting Tool Steel Supply Guide For Saw Blade Producers - China

price: 61.00 Dollar US$

ASTM M2 cutting tool steel continues to dominate the saw blade industry because no other affordable grade combines red hardness, tooth tip toughness and grindability so well.

While this site already carries another stock program article, this guide looks at the grade purely from the perspective of saw blade producers who slit, profile and harden strip every day.

Why saw blade makers specify ASTM M2 cutting tool steel:

- Tooth tips hold 62-65 HRC after vacuum hardening and triple tempering, so the blade cuts longer between re-sharpening

- Vanadium MC carbides keep the cutting corner stable even against abrasive materials like stainless sheet and structural steel

- The grade welds reliably to alloy steel backing in bi-metal construction with matched austenite behavior

- Cost stays predictable because the grade is produced in higher volume than any other HSS Recommended incoming checks for ASTM M2 cutting tool steel strip and bar:

1 - Verify chemistry per ASTM A600 from the EN 10204 3.1 certificate, especially vanadium between 1.75 and 2.20 percent

2 - Confirm annealed hardness 207-255 HB and spheroidized microstructure before profiling teeth

3 - Check decarburization depth reports, since surface decarb causes tooth chipping after hardening

4 - Review carbide distribution against SEP 1520 rating photos for banding that could crack flutes Processing tips from our saw industry customers:

- Blank in the annealed state, harden at 1200-1220°C, then straighten before triple tempering to avoid tooth line distortion

- Allow linear growth of about 0.15-0.20 percent during heat treatment when setting tooth pitch tolerances

- Wet grind gullets only, with fresh wheels, to prevent micro-burns that seed fatigue cracks Forms we supply for saw production:

- Strip from 0.4mm to 12mm thickness, slit widths from 6mm to 100mm, coil or straight lengths

- Rod and bar stock for hole saws, annular cutters and deep hole boring tools

- Cut-to-length blanks with saw kerf allowance and staggered packing for automated feed lines Every order of ASTM M2 cutting tool steel ships mill-direct with heat number traceability, grade stamping and optional third party inspection.

Sample coils and sample bars are available so production trials can start within days of your first inquiry.
