A2 Alloy Tool Steel

High Toughness Wear-Resistant Tool Steel                                            

Cold Work Tool Steel Properties:

What material is A2? A2 steel is a high-quality, high-toughness, wear-resistant tool steel from the United States, belonging to the air-hardening type. It has a high carbon content of about 1%. After polishing, the surface of the steel appears relatively dull, with excellent corrosion resistance and extremely high ductility. The wear resistance of the mold edges is good. This steel has good hardenability, uniform carbide distribution, certain impact toughness, and good wear resistance. It exhibits excellent air-hardening properties, with minimal dimensional deformation after air quenching, and uniform, fine carbides.
