2. Tool steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_steel

   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 elevated ...

3. 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 superior to high- carbon steel tools in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper (hardness). This property allows HSS to cut faster than high carbon steel, hence the name high-speed steel.

4. 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 ...

5. Cutting tool material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_material

   Cutting tool material. Cutting tool materials are materials that are used to make cutting tools which are used in machining ( drill bits, tool bits, milling cutters, etc.) but not other cutting tools like knives or punches . Cutting tool materials must be harder than the material of the workpiece, even at high temperatures during the process.

6. Free machining steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_machining_steel

   Mechanics. Free machining steels are carbon steels that have sulfur, lead, bismuth, selenium, tellurium, or phosphorus added. Sulfur forms the compound manganese sulfide, which is soft and acts as a chip-breaking discontinuity. It also acts as a dry lubricant to prevent a built up edge on the cutting tool. Lead works in a similar way to sulfur.

7. 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.
