Heat treatment Related
- Annealing of O1 Tool steel
Slowly heated to 740-760 ℃（1364-1400℃） and allow enough times, let the steel to be thoroughly heated, Then cool slowly in the furnace. The o1 tool steel will get MAX 250 HB （Brinell hardness）.
- Hardening of o1 tool steel
O1 steels should be heated uniformly to 780-820°C (1436-1508°F) until completely heated through. If needed, the steels can be preheated at 300-500°C (572-932°F). About 30 min/per 25 mm of ruling section is to be provided and then the steels should be immediately quenched in oil.
- Tempering of o1 tool steel
Tempering of O1 steels is performed at 100-350°C (212-662°F), Soak well at the selected temperature and soak for at least one hour per 25mm of total thickness. Get Rockwell C hardness of 55 to 64.

Applications
O1 steels are mainly used for short run tooling for cold forming dies, blanking dies, and cutting tools operating at ambient temper.
O1 tool steel typical applications include medium run dies, intricate press tools, drawing punches, broaches, bushings, lathe centres, chuck jaws, master cavity sinking hobs, paper cutting machine knives, plug gauges, thread gauges and precision measuring tools. Also commonly used in applications such as cams, cloth cutting knives, cold taps, reamers, collets, cutting hobs, strip slitting cutters, trimmer dies, tube expander rolls, plastic moulds and woodworking knives ature.
