Cold Working Steel - TOOLS & ALLOY STEEL - Grades, Properties & Applications | Steel Metal

Cold working steel

TOOLS & ALLOY STEEL:

 

Cold-work steels have high chromium contents. They ensure high surface hardness, good toughness and compressive strength, and provide excellent wear resistance. Typical applications include cold-work tools, cutting-off tools, rolls for cold rolling, measuring tools, etc

STEEL GRADES:


D1, D2, D6, D2M, O1, O7, A2, H11, H13

Round Dia:

  • Medium Dia : 10mm to 80mm
  • Forged Dia  :  Upto 250mm

FLATS: (w) 10mm-150mm to (H) 20mm-80mm x Length (meters)
