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.GUTERL M-1 is a highly-molybdenum, low-tungsten type of high-speed tool steel. It is a general-purpose high-speed steel with an excellent combination of cutting ability, finishing characteristics and toughness. Guterl M-1 has good cutting ability for all operations except for heavy-duty, continuous cutting applications that require the ultimate in red hardness. Its toughness is as great as that of other high-speed steels. Its typical uses include circular saws, broaches, gear cutters, twist drills and taps.
