The end mills segment alone generated USD 3 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% between 2025 and 2034. The demand for end mills is largely driven by high-performance coatings that extend tool life, minimize wear, and improve efficiency during high-speed machining operations. The versatility of these tools, which can handle a wide range of machining applications, continues to bolster their popularity. Additionally, coated drills, which are designed to reduce friction and extend tool durability, are also gaining traction across industries that require tools capable of operating at higher cutting speeds for longer periods.

The aerospace sector accounted for a significant 29% share of the market in 2024 and is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% through 2034. Aerospace manufacturers require tools that not only offer extreme precision but also the ability to cut through tough materials like titanium and aluminum alloys, which are commonly used in this industry. Similarly, the automotive industry is seeing an increased demand for high-speed steel tools due to the need for high-precision, efficient machining in large-scale production. Various cutting tools, such as end mills, drills, and taps, remain integral to the production of engine components and structural parts, further driving demand for HSS tools.

The U.S. high-speed steel metal cutting tools market reached USD 1.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2025 to 2034. This growth is being propelled by the widespread adoption of advanced machining technologies, including CNC systems and robotics, which are enabling manufacturers to achieve greater precision and efficiency. The U.S. market benefits from strong growth in the aerospace, automotive, and medical manufacturing sectors. Furthermore, the continuous advancements in coatings and specialized tool designs are boosting tool efficiency and durability, making HSS tools a top choice in industries that prioritize long-lasting performance and precision.
