Description	TE-2 is a proprietary alloy tool steel developed by TOKKIN as an enhanced version of SKS81. By optimizing the chemical composition and strictly controlling the manufacturing process, TE-2 achieves improved hardenability, finer carbide distribution, superior sharpness, and enhanced wear resistance compared to conventional SKS81 materials. The refined microstructure enables the material to maintain a sharper cutting edge for longer periods, making it particularly suitable for precision cutting applications where blade performance and durability are critical. TE-2 is widely used in the production of premium cutting tools, razor blades, replacement blades, long industrial blades, and other high-grade blade applications requiring excellent edge retention and wear resistance. Main Features: Enhanced Hardenability Improved composition control provides better hardening performance than conventional SKS81-equivalent materials. Superior Sharpness Fine carbide structure allows the blade edge to achieve excellent cutting performance and precision. Excellent Wear Resistance Improved carbide refinement increases service life and reduces edge wear during repeated use. High Strength and Rigidity High Young’s modulus and strong mechanical properties support dimensional stability in demanding applications. Suitable for Heat Treatment Available in annealed, skin-passed, hard rolled, and quenched & tempered (Q&T) conditions to meet various manufacturing requirements. Ideal for Premium Blade Applications Specifically developed for razor blades, industrial cutting tools, and other applications where long-lasting sharpness is essential. TE-2 provides an excellent balance of hardness, wear resistance, cutting performance, and durability, making it a preferred material for manufacturers seeking higher-performance alternatives to conventional SKS81 tool steel.
