High Speed 75

Description

‍

High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, commonly used as cutting tool material. It is often used in power-saw blades and drill bits. HIGH SPEED 75 is a barium-based salt used for hardening high speed tool steels at temperatures greater than 1900°F. The liquidity (drag-out) of HIGH SPEED 75 at 2200°F is estimated at 0.065 grams per square inch.

Key Properties

• HIGH SPEED 75 is a barium-based salt designed for hardening high-speed tool steels at temperatures greater than 1900°F, suitable for cutting tool materials like power-saw blades and drill bits.
• It has a melting point of 1750°F, a working range of 1900 - 2400°F, and a density of 170 lbs./ft.³ at 2150°F. The product is characterized by its white appearance and has no vapor pressure.
• The product should be used in internally heated furnaces, preferably ceramic-lined with totally submerged electrodes, while externally fired metal pots are not recommended due to limited pot life.
• Extreme caution is advised during handling, especially due to the risks of splashing molten salts which are hazardous. Proper protective gear, including gloves and safety goggles, is essential.
• Disposal of HIGH SPEED 75 must comply with all federal, state, and local regulations. Safety Data Sheets (SDS) should be consulted for proper disposal and handling instructions, emphasizing keeping the product out of reach of children.
