High-speed steel (HSS) is a crucial component of machining and fabricating equipment.

With a capacity to withstand higher temperatures without losing its firmness, high-speed steel scrap will always have high prices thanks to its remarkable characteristics. Additionally, high-speed tool manufacturers and refineries source their HSS from reliable scrap yards. You can find HSS in the following tools and equipment. 

Alloyed Carbon Steel Drill Bits

Most HSS drill bits have a considerable content of carbon steel, chrome, and vanadium. These materials allow them to achieve high drilling speeds and resist high heat without losing their edge and hardness. However, these drill bits will still wear out after using them extensively. Fortunately, they yield a high price thanks to the high demand for high-speed steel scrap in the market.

Tungsten Guillotine Knives

Guillotine knives that use T-15 tungsten alloys have vast deposits of high-speed steel scrap. These industrial blades can cut easily through steel, aluminum, and copper. Truthfully, they can work for long periods with minimal maintenance. However, consistent use can still wear it down over time. If you have tons of old guillotine knives, you can get enormous offers for its yield from scrappers.

High-Quality Parting Tools

Unlike cutting, parting and grooving tools require a hardness with exceptional resistance to sparking and heat. In this light, HSS, such as M2 to M50, is immensely present in parting tools and equipment. If you have aged or obsolete parting machines or tools, you can get top dollar for its HSS content.

Machining Saw Blades

Saw blades use HSS to reinforce its outer cutting edges with heat resistance. Using this property enables the blades to cut efficiently without sacrificing their cutting edges. Additionally, it reduces possible material contamination on processed materials.
