Abstract Micro-Melt A11-LVC is a high-vanadium tool steel produced by the Carpenter Micro-Melt powder process. It provides higher toughness than Carpenter Micro-Melt A11 (Alloy Digest TS-571, January 2000) with lower wear resistance. It is used where slightly less wear resistance than that of Micro-Melt A11 is acceptable. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on high temperature performance and wear resistance as well as heat treating and machining. Filing Code: TS-573. Producer or source: Carpenter.

Abstract BETHALLOY is a low-alloy oil-hardening tool steel. Because of its relatively low carbon content (for tool steels), it has slightly better shock resistance than more highly alloyed types and may be used wherever wear resistance can be sacrificed for moderately increased toughness. This datasheet provides information on composition and hardness as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, machining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: TS-308. Producer or source: Bethlehem Steel Corporation.
