ASTM A600 M6 Introduce
ASTM A600 M6 is a steel alloy which is ferrous like any other form of steel and non-ferrous in general and because of this alloy is known as special steel. This steel is less susceptible to corrosion than most conventional carbon steels and possesses high hardness. It is further utilized for various applications in both industrial and commercial areas.
Smelting temperature:1227°C - 1597°C
Application:Tool Steel High Speed
