The company is renowned for offering high-grade tool steel solutions and provides T4-grade HSS bars suited for high-performance cutting and machining applications. With emphasis on accuracy, longevity, and customer satisfaction, Anucha Metals caters to customers in the automotive, aerospace, die-making, and engineering industries. Their T4 bars are manufactured employing high-tech machinery and rigorous quality control to produce consistent hardness, dimensional tolerance, and wear resistance. Anucha Metals remains a reliable supplier of high-quality HSS materials in Thailand and overseas.
**T4 bars of High Speed Steel** contain about 1.3% carbon, 18% tungsten, 4% chromium, and 1% vanadium. Tungsten-based alloy is very hard, resistant to abrasion, and has red hardness, which enables the T4 to remain sharp even at high temperatures. T4 has high compressive strength and can be used for tools subjected to great cutting forces. Though it is less tough than cobalt-containing grades like T15, it provides excellent performance for applications in high-speed cutting. The combination of good edge retention and wear resistance of the alloy renders it ideal for precision cutting tools for demanding machining situations.

High Speed Steel T4 bars are sized by diameter and length, typically ranging from 1/4" to 10" in diameter, with standard lengths of 12 to 20 feet, depending on manufacturer specifications.
High Speed Steel T4 bars and rods are manufactured through alloying, melting, forging, and heat treatment processes, followed by precision machining to achieve desired hardness, strength, and dimensional accuracy for industrial use.
High-speed steel T4 bars should be stored in a dry, clean environment, protected from moisture and corrosion. Store them on flat, secure surfaces to prevent deformation or damage.
**High Speed Steel T4 bars** find widespread application in the manufacture of cutting tools like lathe tools, milling cutters, reamers, saw blades, and planer knives. Their higher red hardness and wear resistance make them best suited for high-speed machining of hard and abrasive materials. T4 is used in the automotive, aerospace, and general engineering industries where the tool life and cutting accuracy are critical. These bars find application in metal-forming operations and die manufacturing too, providing consistent performance in operations involving continuous exposure to high temperatures and severe mechanical stress.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
