- 1 3/4% Tungsten

Drill bits made of this material are most commonly used for all standard drilling applications and has a good abrasion resistance.

- Molybdenum high speed steel
- 9 1/2% Molybdenum
- 3 3/4% Chromium
- 1 1/4% Vanadium
- 1 1/2% Tungsten
- 8% Cobalt

This steel has excellent abrasion resistance and retains it's cutting edge at a much higher temperature than M-7 and M-2.
