Select tool steels improve casting use and longevity dependent upon environment and occupational stresses. Production tool steel investment casting compositions vary with high/low working temperatures, durability and shock resistance, corrosion and abrasion protections, and strength to hardness ratios that affect metal casting costs, and carbon and alloying element content.
