Free cutting steels

The efficient processing of steel requires high quality materials which are optimised for turning and milling on machine tools. To this end, we develop steels characterised both by their high mechanical strength and by their outstanding machining properties as well as precision and smooth surface finishes – to enhance your competitive advantage.

Because this guarantees high cutting speeds while minimising machine tool wear at the same time. Our free cutting steels are used everywhere where precision parts have to work securely and reliably for many years – in combination with the demand for rational fabrication and inexpensive component costs. This means both with simple components and with sensitive applications, e.g. in the automotive industry – in the areas of hydraulic or brake systems, for instance.
