Trusted by various sectors including engineering, tooling, and manufacturing, Isis Metals is committed to delivering reliable, high-performance steel solutions for demanding industrial applications both in the Philippines and beyond.
When it comes to **High Speed Steel Bars**, they are primarily alloyed with tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, vanadium, cobalt, and carbon, which gives them remarkable hardness retention and red hardness at elevated temperatures. Typical compositions might include 0.7–1.4% carbon, 3–6% chromium, 5–10% molybdenum, 1–5% vanadium, and up to 10% tungsten, depending on the specific grade (like M2, T1, or T42). These elements work together to provide high compressive strength, excellent edge retention, and outstanding resistance to wear and deformation. HSS Bars maintain their cutting performance even at temperatures soaring above 600°C, making them perfect for precision machining tasks. High-speed steel (HSS) bars usually have a composition containing carbon, tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, vanadium, and cobalt. The carbon content ranges between 0.7% to 1.5%, whereas tungsten and molybdenum are usually present in 10%–20% and 3%–8%, respectively, which gives hardness and heat resistance. Chromium ranges between 4%–6% to improve corrosion resistance, whereas vanadium, at 1%–2%, improves wear resistance. Cobalt at 5%–10% increases red-hardness. HSS bars have a high tensile strength of up to 2400 MPa, hardness up to 65 HRC, and excellent resistance to thermal softening, which makes them the best for cutting tools and machining applications.
High-speed steel (HSS) bars are sized based on their cross-sectional dimensions (diameter for round bars, width/thickness for flats, or side length for square bars) and overall length. Standard sizes often follow industry specifications (e.g., ASTM, DIN) and are available in a range of diameters (e.g., 3mm to 200mm or more) and lengths (commonly 1-6 meters). Custom sizes can also be produced based on application needs.
Consider grade, hardness, toughness, heat resistance, tensile strength, dimensional accuracy, machinability, application-specific needs, corrosion resistance, surface finish, cost-effectiveness, supplier reliability, and compliance with industry standards.
Store high-speed steel bars in a dry, ventilated area, away from moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Use racks or pallets to prevent deformation, and apply protective coatings to avoid corrosion.
**High Speed Steel Bars** find their place in industries that demand high cutting performance and long-lasting tools. They are particularly well-suited for crafting cutting tools such as drills, end mills, reamers, taps, saw blades, punches, and broaches. Additionally, HSS Bars are utilized in the creation of dies, forming tools, and machine components that face high friction and heat. Their exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and red hardness make them ideal for applications in the automotive, aerospace, and metalworking sectors, ensuring consistent performance, precision, and an extended tool life even under the most challenging operating conditions.














We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
