Supreme Steels

T1

Product Description:

T1 is a high-carbon, tungsten-based high-speed tool steel that is known for its excellent hardness, wear resistance, and ability to retain strength at high temperatures. T1 tool steel is often used in the production of cutting tools, such as drills, taps, and milling cutters, and is recognized for its exceptional red hardness, which makes it ideal for high-speed cutting applications. It is primarily used in industries where tools are exposed to high thermal stresses and must maintain sharpness at elevated temperatures, such as in metalworking, automotive, and aerospace sectors. T1 is one of the oldest and most widely used high-speed steels due to its toughness and excellent performance in high-temperature environments.
