CarTech M10 Steel

CarTech M10 Steel

Steel name: CarTech M10
Diagram No.: 2298
UNS designation: T11310
AISI/SAE designation: M10
Chemical composition in weight %: 0.85% C, 0.30% Si, 0.20% Mn, 4.00% Cr, 8.00% Mo, 2.00% V
Steel group: High speed steels
Properties: CarTech M10 high speed steel is a general purpose molybdenum-bearing high speed steel possessing excellent wear resistance and cutting properties. The increased wear resistance and cutting ability of this electroslag remelted high speed steel are a result of its high vanadium and carbon content.
Applications: Blanking dies, broaches, chasers, counterbores, drills, form cutters, hobs, lathe tools, milling cutters, planer tools, punches, reamers, shear blades, taps, trimming dies, cutting tools.
Reference: Not shown in this demo version.

Heat Treatment
Hardening: Ten Star high speed steel should be heat treated from neutral salt baths or properly adjusted controlled atmosphere furnaces. A dew point of +10°F (-12°C) is suggested for the high heat furnace when using controlled atmosphere. First, preheat to 1400/1500°F (760/816°C), then transfer to a superheating furnace with a temperature maintained at 2150/2225°F (1177/1218°C). When neutral salt baths are used for hardening, the temperature should be dropped 25°F (14°C) as compared to other furnace temperatures.
Tempering: Be sure to allow sufficient time for the tool to reach the proper temperature and then start timing the tempering operation. Tools should be tempered immediately after the completion of the quench. For best results with most tools, a range of 1000/1200°F (538/649°C) is suggested. For cutting tools, double or triple temper at 1000/1050°F (538/566°C) where maximum wear resistance is desired. The effect of various tempering temperatures on the Rockwell hardness is shown in the hyperlink entitled "Effect of Tempering Temperature on Hardness."
