Ameralloy Oil is the most widely used grade of drill rod. It is a general purpose tool steel with premium hardening, wear resistance, and toughness.
Ameralloy-60 has a minimum distortion characteristic which makes it particularly well suited for dies and punches in blanking and forming operations. Also recommended for gages or other tools where close size tolerance is required.
Ameralloy Air is recommended over Ameralloy Oil when increased wear resistance, safe hardening, and less distortion are required.
Ameralloy-60 has a minimum distortion characteristic which makes it particularly well suited for dies and punches in blanking and forming operations. Also recommended for gages or other tools where close size tolerance is required.
Ameralloy W1 and W2 are water hardening grades formulated to meet the needs of the machine shop. Well suited for average work where premium grades are not required.
Ameralloy High Speed-2 is the most widely used type of high speed tool steel. It’s higher carbon content and balanced analysis produce properties applicable to all general purpose high speed uses.
Ameralloy-7 is our new, premium quality air hardening drill rod. It’s the toughest, strongest drill rod for many applications that require maximum strength and impact.
Ameralloy-13 combines good red hardness with abrasion resistance and resists heat checking. Ameralloy-13 is made from vacuum degassed tool steel ingots. This process plus carefully controlled hot work provides optimum uniformity, consistent response to heat treatment, and long service life.
