View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.RED CUT SUPERIOR J is a tungsten-type of hot-work tool and die steel; in fact, it is the 18 tungsten-4 chromium-1 vanadium high-speed composition with carbon lowered to provide more toughness. It is characterized by high red hardness and good resistance to abrasion. It is recommended for applichations in which hardness must be maintained at elevated temperatures.
