- Color: Silver with different hues based on how it was forged:
- Normal: Blue
- Force (Light): Gold
- Force (Dark): Red
- Force (by Corbin Vasher): Violet
- Resistances:
- Energy: Extreme
- Kinetic: Very High
- Lightsabers: Extreme
- Extreme Temperatures: Very High
- Super strong against Energy, Kinetic, and especially Lightsaber damage.
- Has very high hardness.
- Weighs about half as much as standard beskar steel.
- Retains strength in extreme temperature condition, hot or cold.
- Very good weldability.
- Beskar: Is super strong against Energy, Kinetic, and especially Lightsaber damage.
- Lightweight: Weighs about half as much as standard beskar steel.
- Temperature Resist: Retains strength in extreme temperature condition, hot or cold.
- Unmachineable: Due to the high hardness of tungsten, this alloy cannot be machined in the traditional methods.
- Not Magnetic: Weapons made from this alloy will not work with magnetic grip gauntlets.
- Solo Alloy: It is not suitable to weld to other metals or alloys, as this will make a weak weld.
- Unique: Difficulty in creating it means it cannot be mass produced.
Corbin Vasher first discovered this alloy while meditating in a Force trance when he was contemplating how he would build his Mandalorian/Jensaarai armor. He first forged it via the Force (using the Jensaarai variant of Force Alchemy). Corbin later taught the recipe for the alloy to his company Force-Tech, so it could see wider use for any fellow Mandalorians who are interested in it.
Using the Force is the most convenient way to forge it, but it can also be forged in a high-temperature forge with enough skill. The alloy has a slightly different colored hue to it depending on how it is forged but has a silver color over all. It can be colored any other color just like any steel. It sports a banding pattern that differs based on how it was folded during forging. When forging it using the Force, specific banding patterns can be made intentionally.
Due to unmachineability of the alloy, it is unsuited for mass production, as it generally has to be cast into the final shape it will take. However, it welds to itself very well.
