APPLICATION
D3 steel has good wear resistance and is suitable for making dies and punches with low impact load and high wear resistance, cold shear knives, drill sleeves, gauges, wire drawing dies, etc.
Characteristics of D3 Mold Steel
High hardness: D3 steel has a high carbon content (1.5% -2.35%) and a high chromium content (11% -13.5%), which gives it high hardness and wear resistance, making it suitable for high load and high wear environments.
Wear resistance: The high carbon and high chromium composition endows D3 steel with excellent wear resistance, making it suitable for manufacturing molds that require high wear resistance such as stamping dies and shear dies.
Compressive strength: D3 steel has high compressive strength and can withstand large pressures, making it suitable for high load molds.
Moderate toughness: Although the toughness of D3 steel is not as good as some die steels with better toughness, it can still meet the needs of most cold work dies after reasonable heat treatment.
Heat treatment performance: D3 steel can further improve its hardness and wear resistance through quenching and tempering, with a typical quenching temperature of 950 ° C-980 ° C and tempering temperature of 180 ° C-220 ° C.
Corrosion resistance: The high chromium content gives D3 steel a certain degree of corrosion resistance, but not as good as stainless steel, making it suitable for general corrosive environments.
Processing performance: The processing performance of D3 steel is generally average, especially in the annealed state, where cutting is difficult and usually requires pre hardening treatment to improve processing performance.
