Neith Metals, located in Cairo, Egypt, stands out as a top manufacturer and supplier of premium steel products, with a particular focus on High Speed Steel (HSS) T15 Bars. Known for their precision, durability, and reliability, Neith Metals caters to industries that demand exceptional cutting performance and wear resistance. By combining advanced metallurgical techniques with rigorous quality control, the company produces T15 Bars that comply with both local and international standards. With a strong dedication to innovation and customer satisfaction, Neith Metals guarantees that each HSS T15 Bar provides optimal performance for challenging industrial tasks, including tooling, machining, and engineering operations.
High Speed Steel T15 Bars are primarily alloyed with 1.5% carbon, 18% tungsten, 4% chromium, 5% molybdenum, and 3.5% vanadium, which gives them remarkable hardness and wear resistance. Their microstructure, enhanced by complex carbides, ensures outstanding toughness and thermal stability. T15 Bars can maintain their hardness even at temperatures up to 650°C, making them perfect for high-speed cutting tasks. With a typical hardness rating of 64–66 HRC after heat treatment, T15 Bars demonstrate excellent compressive strength, high red hardness, and resistance to deformation, ensuring dependable performance in both heavy-duty and precision machining applications.
