D2 Tool Steel

D2 Tool Steel make for knife . 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. These carbides provide good resistance to wear from sliding contact with other metals and abrasive materials. Although other steels with improved toughness or improved wear resistance are available, D2 provides an effective combination of wear resistance and toughness, tool performance, price, and a wide variety of product forms.

D2 Tool Steel make for knife , AISI D2 is a high carbon-high chromium alloy tool steel that offers great wear and abrasion resistance, due to the large volumes of carbides in its microstructure. It is widely used in long production cold work applications requiring very high wear resistance and high compression strength. D2 tool steel is machinable in its annealed condition, and like other air hardening tool steels, shows minimal distortion when treated with heat. D2 Tool Steel is available in rounds, flats, and squares, as well as ground flat stock and drill rod.
