Avadon Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 What is steel that is stamped as "FORGED" with a export label that indicates it came from China (or even Taiwan). A36? Is this just Forged mild? Also things that say "Tool Steel" from china, are they really tool steel, or are they just a steel tool lol.

ThomasPowers Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) Any steel they feel like can be stamped "FORGED", some may even be forged! There are a large number of tool steels not all of them real great for some uses; others may be at the lower limits of their quality designations and then there is the problem with "forged" information on them. Without testing YOU DON'T KNOW! Edited August 14, 2009 by ThomasPowers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichudov Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Maybe it is "forged" in the sense of "forged" counterfeit goods or "forged" melamine dog food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
