DESCRIPTION
Z-Tuff PM is a unique tool steel chemistry manufactured using the powder metallurgy process that is engineered for maximum toughness and impact resistance. Its hardness of 58-60Rc gives it excellent compressive strength and added wear resistance over traditional conventional shock grades like AISI A2 and S7. Z-Tuff PM is also a highly effective substrate for a variety of PVD coatings and surface treatments.
