2. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

   High-speed steel. High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material. It is often used in power-saw blades and drill bits. In addition, it is often used in bowl gouges and skew for woodturning. [1] It is superior to high- carbon steel tools in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing ...

3. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_(machining)

   Cutting tool (machining) In the context of machining, a cutting tool or cutter is typically a hardened metal tool that is used to cut, shape, and remove material from a workpiece by means of machining tools as well as abrasive tools by way of shear deformation. The majority of these tools are designed exclusively for metals.

4. Hardening (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardening_(metallurgy)

   Hardening (metallurgy) Hardening is a metallurgical metalworking process used to increase the hardness of a metal. The hardness of a metal is directly proportional to the uniaxial yield stress at the location of the imposed strain. A harder metal will have a higher resistance to plastic deformation than a less hard metal.

5. Metal lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_lathe

   In machining, a metal lathe or metalworking lathe is a large class of lathes designed for precisely machining relatively hard materials. They were originally designed to machine metals ; however, with the advent of plastics and other materials, and with their inherent versatility, they are used in a wide range of applications, and a broad range ...

6. Tool bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_bit

   Tool bit. In machining, a tool bit is a non-rotary cutting tool used in metal lathes, shapers, and planers. Such cutters are also often referred to by the set-phrase name of single-point cutting tool, as distinguished from other cutting tools such as a saw or water jet cutter. The cutting edge is ground to suit a particular machining operation ...

7. Tool steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_steel

   Wrought iron. Tool steel is any of various carbon steels and alloy steels that are particularly well-suited to be made into tools and tooling, including cutting tools, dies, hand tools, knives, and others. Their suitability comes from their distinctive hardness, resistance to abrasion and deformation, and their ability to hold a cutting edge at ...
