How is M2 tool steel given the right shape?
The shaping of M2 tool steel is top-notch with grinding methods. Although, the grinding capability is not that effective, and that’s the reason it is categorized as medium machinability. Additionally, to make it right on all levels, there is the right use of heat treatment before hardening that goes up to:
- 5°C (1500°F)
- After that, it goes from 815.5°C (1500°F) to 843.3°C (1550°F)
To have the right properties and hardness, the steels are cooled for 3 to 5 minutes. Following that, it is quenched in the salt bath, oil, and air.
