It is often used in power saw blades and drill bits. It is superior to the older high carbon steel tools used extensively through the 1940s in that it can withstand higher temperatures without losing its temper (hardness). This property allows HSS to cut faster than high carbon steel, hence the name high speed steel. At room temperature, in their generally recommended heat treatment, HSS grades generally display high hardness (above HRC60) and a high abrasion resistance (generally linked to tungsten content often used in HSS) compared to common carbon and tool steels.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add your own answer in the comments!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by W&#038;M Swem Library Question by e2hudson: does high speed steel bend or break?
