About Crown Pro-PM Tools
The "elite" of Crown's turning tools, Pro-PM tools are made from an advanced Powder Metal (PM). The molten steel has been compressed and sintered to give them a cutting edge which lasts four-five times longer than conventional High Speed Steel (HSS) tools.
They are hardened to between 66° and 68° Rockwell, enabling them to have vastly superior wear resistance, excellent grind-ability, superior toughness, a high working hardness and a high retention of hardness.
The ergonomically designed stained black ash handles fitted to these tools make the finished chisels unbeatable. Most tools have 12-1/2" long handles and are approx. 18-1/2" long overall. England
