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.VascoDyne is a new high-speed steel for the metal-cutting industry. This new steel is designed to give equivalent or better performance than many grades of high-speed steel now in use and at a lower cost. VascoDyne provides improved hot hardness and wear resistance over conventional high-speed steels such as AISI Types, M1, M7 and M10. VascoDyne is recommended as an excellent alternate to the traditional high-speed steels used in cutting-tool applications.
