Materials governed by are typically characterized by the addition of specific alloying elements—most commonly sulfur or selenium . These additions form inclusions (such as manganese sulfides) that reduce the friction between the cutting tool and the workpiece, allowing for: Faster Cutting Speeds : Increasing production throughput. | N/A | | Corrosion Resist

: Minimizing the burrs and rough edges often associated with standard stainless grades. Technical Specifications
