D6 Steel Properties
D6 steel is a high carbon, high chromium tungsten alloy tool steel with high compressive strength, high wear resistance, high surface hardness, and good hardening stability. In addition, it is also known as SKD2 steel and DIN 1.2436 steel.
D6 mold steel can achieve high hardness and strength during heat treatment to provide excellent wear resistance, wear resistance, and impact toughness. After appropriate heat treatment, D6 mold steel can achieve high hardness (up to 58-62 HRC) and excellent wear resistance, which can resist wear and deformation. In addition, D6 mold steel has a lower tendency to deform after cooling and can maintain good dimensional stability. Due to these characteristics, D6 mold steel is widely used in the manufacturing of cold work molds, such as cold shear molds, stamping molds, and cold stamping molds.
In addition, due to the excellent cutting performance and hardness of D6 mold steel, it is commonly used in the manufacturing of cutting tools, such as cutting tools, blades, and drill bits. D6 mold steel also has good high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for manufacturing cooling molds, such as injection molds and die-casting molds.
