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.

MOLITE 4 is a high-carbon, high-vanadium, tungsten-molybdenum high-speed steel that approaches the ultimate in wear resistance for high-speed steels in this group. The advantages in using this steel comprise (1) Very high wear resistance, (2) High red hardness, (3) Good toughnes and (4) Moderate grindability. Among its many uses are punches and dies for blanking and forming thin sheet, milling cutters, twist drills, reamers, forming rolls, cold-extrusion punches and draw dies.
