High Torque Steel is much more than "just steel" and much more than a “name”. It is a specification,
a process and a commitment to producing a level of tool performance unmatched by any competitor.
Protanium® high torque steel is not an 8650 grade steel, it is not a form of S2 and it is not a chrome-vanadium
or chrome-moly type steel. It is custom mixed to a formula that is the result of many years
of research and continuous development effort.

Bondhus works extensively with its steel suppliers
to ensure meticulous quality control, testing and documentation standards are adhered to. Conformance to
Bondhus' specification means qualified technicians perform constant inspection, testing and evaluation
steps to make sure the “no compromises” quality policy is always enforced. Over 60 separate tests
guarantee that every tool manufactured is 100% within spec.

Customized heat treating processes are key to bringing out the superior strength properties of
Protanium® high torque steel. Anyone with a piece of steel and a torch can perform some level of
heat treating. Attaining results that push beyond industry accepted limits of performance requires
equipment, skill, and years of research and development that Bondhus alone has committed itself to.
