Machining steels

Tata Steel offers a range of machining steels allowing the customer to achieve machinability benefits at minimum cost.

Existing customers have experienced lower production costs after replacing alloy grades with Hitenspeed 45 or Hitenspeed 65. The Hitenspeed grades have a similar hardness to heat treated alloy steels, thus removing the need for the heat treatment step and hence reducing production costs.

Our product range includes:

• Low carbon free cutting steels
• Medium carbon free cutting steels
• Leaded free cutting steels
• Enhanced free cutting steels
• Leaded carbon and alloy steels
• Inclusion modified steels
• Improved machining steels
• Free machining stainless steels
