scrapman1077 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I checked the H13 we have at work and it has an orange trace down the entire bar, some suppiers may just paint the end. We get our H13 and all the tool steels we use from Southern Tool Steel of Tenn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rthibeau Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 thanks, scrapman for the info. I picked up a dozen 10' long round bars 1 1/8 or 1 1/4" dia of H13 at scrap prices. I also got a couple other grades, but haven't ID'd them yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Stegmeier Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 The H13 I get (drops from a mold making shop) are all painted white on one end. I have seen shops with paint marks on the wall with steel ids next to the mark. Paint is never standard, across shops or sources Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
