View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)

Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.

ALX is a composition of non-ferrous materials with a cobalt base containing chromium, tungsten and carbon. This alloy is commonly supplied in the cast-to-shape form, having an as-cast hardness of Rockwell C60-62 and requiring no further heat treatment. ALX is also supplied as cast tool bit material and is useful where conventional high-speed steels or carbides do not function effectively.
