M41 high speed steel American standard steel molybdenum high speed tool steel. The main features are fine carbide particles, uniform distribution, good toughness, but decarburization sensitivity and overheating sensitivity, thermal processing and heat treatment range narrow.
Features
This alloy is a High Speed, tungsten, molybdenum containing tool steel. It has good toughness along with hardness and is lower in cost than an equivalent tungsten (W) tool steel.
Applications
Primary application is as cutting tools for machining operations.

Preheat at 1450 F and then rapidly heat to 2250 F. Hold parts for 2 to 5 minutes and air cool, salt bath or oil quench.
Anneal at 1600 – 1650 F and slow cool in the furnace at less than 40 F per hour.
