Marc Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 I'm guessing you're talking about high-speed steel. It's used in drill bits, router bits, taps, etc. I've been told it forges OK, but is very diffiicult to heat treat correctly. An air cool would cause it to turn brittle, and really needs a controlled heat-treat oven to prevent that. Anyway, that's the rumor. Quote
HWooldridge Posted March 20, 2006 Posted March 20, 2006 Might be M2 or a variant thereof. It is sometimes considered high-speed steel. Quote

longinus876 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Karl, Faststeel is a steel reinforced epoxy. Can be applied to wet surfaces. I'll be using it today. Hope it works. Quote
