Title: Japanese wheel and wear resistant steels?
Post by: 3D Anvil on January 31, 2022, 06:27:24 PM
I'm having a hard time finding info. on the limits of the Tormek Japanese wheel.  Is it capable of being use as a finishing wheel on high-Vanadium super steels like Maxamet?  If not that extreme case, what about more common steels like M390/cmp-20cv?  Thanks!
