M4 Tool Steel Properties
Cpm rex m4 hc also excels in cold work tooling applications where it provides better toughness and wear resistance than high carbon high chromium die steels such as d2 and d3.
M4 tool steel properties. Pm m4 high speed tool steel is a flexible steel that provides a unique combination of high wear resistance with high impact toughness and bend strength which are results of the fine grain size small carbides and superior cleanliness of the steel. Pm m4 offers improved cutting tool life compared to conventionally wrought m1 m2 m7 and other. This specialty high speed steel was developed to have a greater abrasion and wear resistance for high tool life quality and cutting speeds. M4 is an extremely versatile high speed steel with its extremely high carbon and vanadium contents for exceptional abrasion resistance.
Pm m4 is a molybdenum tungsten high speed steel produced using the pm powdered metal steel making process. Cpm rex m4 hc offers improved cutting tool life compared to conventionally wrought m1 m2 m7 and other lower alloyed high speed steels. With 4 of chromium it offers decent corrosion resistance. In fact cpm m4 exhibits the best toughness properties of any high speed steel we currently produce conventional or cpm.

M4 high speed tool steel m4 is a molybdenum tungsten high speed steel that is characterized by its high abrasion wear resistance transverse bend strength and impact toughness. According to it chemical composition and hardness the cpm m4 offers the following properties. The grade has an excellent balance of toughness and wear resistance making it ideal for cutting tools and for cold work tooling. It is well suited for premium cutting tools of all types particularly those used for machining abrasive alloys castings and heat treated materials.
Combined with its excellent wear resistant properties and good grindability comparable to conventional m2 cpm m4 represents the best high performance general purpose high speed steel on the market today.
