Blue Demon M-2 Tool Steel TIG Rod
M-2 high speed tool steel is an 8% molybdenum wire that produces hard as welded deposits which retain maximum hardness up to operating temperatures of 1100°F. M-2 has a high toughness characteristic which provides an answer to facing fine edges that must be ground with sharp angles, where danger of edge crumbling or chipping is encountered.
