I would appreciate some help in finding data if any is available, on tensile and/or yield strength of W1 water-hardening tool steel in the annealed condition. All data I have been able to find makes reference to mechanical properties in hardened and drawn condition, because that's what you do with it. In this case I need to know if the strength of the steel without heat treatment is greater than that of mild steel; I hope also to compare whatever value it is to the values of 304 stainless steel. Can anyone advise?
