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.

AL TECH HTB-2 is a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel that is a lower molybdenum high-speed steels. It has a high hardenability and is a vacuum-melted steel for bearings. It is especially suited for highly loaded bearings in gas turbine enginens operating at elevated temperatures under critical service requirements. It has outstanding resistance to wear and softening at temperatures up to 800 F and also exhibits relatively good oxidation resistance. HTB-2 is furnished in both the single vacuum-melted and double vacuum-melted condition.
