Latrobe Lescalloy® M50 VIM-VAR High Performance Bearing Steel
Categories: Metal; Ferrous Metal; Alloy Steel; Carbon Steel; High Carbon Steel

Material Notes: LESCALLOY M50 VIM-VAR steel is a through-hardening grade with high hardness and high compressive strength at elevated temperatures. It is produced exclusively as a double vacuum melted produced using vacuum induction melting plus VAC-ARC remelting. This VIM-ARC process provides the optimum in control and reproducibility of chemistry, micro cleanliness and superior fatigue resistance.
