The cost-effectiveness of high speed steels is strongly dependent on their alloy components. Strong fluctuations in the raw materials market and resulting price variations have compelled voestalpine BÖHLER Edelstahl to rethink the basic alloy concepts of the high speed steels in our product portfolio. The result is the patented BÖHLER S730 material, which is an economical alternative to the generally applicable standard sort 1.3243 or M35 (BÖHLER S705). Despite its economic advantage, BÖHLER S730 is fully equivalent to the standard 1.3243 in terms of performance.
