Cutting tool steel.
Tool steel refers to a variety of carbon steel and alloy steel that are particularly well suited to be made into tools their suitability comes from their distinctive hardness resistance to abrasion and deformation and their ability to hold a cutting edge at elevated temperatures.
Steel thickness is referred to as gauge the smaller the number of gauge the thicker the steel.
As a result tool steels are suited for use in the shaping of other materials.
