Many thanks to both of you - in this case it's first come, first served. However, I have always called it "steel alloy".

acciaio legato


Explanation:
eurodicautom gives "alloy steel" alloy keeps the same meaning as legato because it's a blending, voir "alliage" en français
they also give "special steel" but i find it a bit too general
hope it'll help
