Something I found, is a place where you can enter any steel variety, and it will give you many different entry's, all telling you waht the steel is composed of, and it usually has various heat treating results, like "oil quenched at 1500 degrees, 55HRC" and a lot of other info.

www.matweb.com
I go there whenever I want to know what a steel is made of, or some other info.

It also has most other metals.

Here is another site with much valuable information, click on property data on the menu at the left and then select the steel type it will give you forging information, heat treating etc.

Principal Metals
