M7 high speed steel is a type of tool steel known for its high toughness and wear resistance. It is composed of a combination of tungsten, molybdenum, and high levels of carbon and chromium. M7 steel has a Rockwell hardness of 62-63, making it ideal for cutting tools such as drills, saw blades, and milling cutters. It is also used in the production of parts that require high strength and durability, such as aerospace components and automobile transmissions.
