A subset of tool steels called "high-speed" steels are distinguished by their remarkable qualities, such as great hardness, resistance to wear, and the capacity to keep their cutting edge sharp at high temperatures. They are frequently employed in applications where accuracy and high-speed machining are crucial, such as cutting tools, drills, milling cutters, and other similar devices.
The criteria and features that must be included in high-speed tool steels in order for them to satisfy industry standards are described in the specifications. High-speed tool steels are chosen, produced, and tested by manufacturers and material specialists using these parameters to make sure they fulfill the necessary performance and quality requirements. These criteria benefit a variety of businesses that depend on precise machining and manufacturing processes by improving tool life, productivity, safety, and economic efficiency. Maintaining quality, consistency, and competitiveness in the production of high-speed tool steels and the tools they produce depends on adherence to standards.
The required ISI Certification Scheme, which is based on IS standard IS 7291: 1981, now includes all standards for high speed tool steels.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
