Tool Steel > Rod & Bar > O6
O6 has the highest machinability rating of any standard grade of tool steel. Free graphite in the microstructure gives unique machining characteristics; it also allows lubricant retention which gives non-seizing properties. O6 can usually be substituted for O1 in any application where machinability is a prime consideration
