D2 Tool Steel Sheet

D2 tool steel hardens in air with a low order of movement and offers a measure of corrosion resistance when polished.

D2 tool steel sheet.

A high carbon high chromium type tool steel d2 combines exceptional wear resisting properties with maximum toughness at high hardness in sections of all sizes. A high carbon high chromium tool steel grade offering very high wear resistance and toughness. D2 flat ground is an air hardening high carbon high chromium tool steel with extremely high wear resisting properties. These carbides provide good resistance to wear from sliding contact with other metals and abrasive materials.

The d2 tool steel grade has high proportions of carbon and chromium for greater resistance to wear than a2 and a6 tool steel. It offers excellent abrasion resistance due to a large volume of carbides in the microstructure. Buy tool steel online or you can order by phone 1 888 866 5911. Minimum tendency to distort during heat treatment makes d2 popular where intricate die designs are involved or in any application requiring extreme stability during heat treatment.

D 2 provides a good blend of toughness strength and affordability. D2 has been widely used for many years in cold work applications requiring very high wear resistance. Tool steel service of california inc. D2 tool steel is a versatile high carbon high chromium air hardening tool steel that is characterized by a relatively high attainable hardness and numerous large chromium rich alloy carbides in the microstructure.

Tool steel is a carbon and alloy steel that has ideal characteristics including high hardness abrasion resistance a good ability to retain its shape even in higher temperatures. Tool steel drill rod d2 is a high carbon air hardening tool steel that provides good resistance to wear. Tool steel is commonly used in injection molding where resistance to abrasion is an important criterion. Data sheet d2 d2 is an air hardening high carbon high chromium tool steel heat treatable to hrc 60 62.
