Technical Characteristics

Tool alloys have significantly higher hardness as compared to structural ones (especially after quenching) but are more brittle. Tool steels are subdivided by their chemical composition into carbon steels (GOST 1435-54), alloyed (GOST 5952-51) and high-speed steels (GOST 5952-51).

Carbon content

Tool steels are subdivided in carbon content and hardness into low-carbon steels with carbon content of 0.25%, medium-carbon steels - from 0.25% to 0.6% and high-carbon steels - from 0.6 to 2%.

Marking

Tool steels in accordance with State Standard 1435-54 may have the following marking: U7; U8; U8G; U9; U10; U11; U12; U13. The letter "Y" indicates the presence of carbon, and the next number - the average carbon content in tenths of a percent. The letter G indicates elevated manganese content.

Alloying has a multidimensional effect on steel quality. Manganese increases hardness, impact strength, and wear resistance. Copper improves workability and machinability. Nickel increases toughness and stabilizes composition.

Applications for

Tool production for finishing and semi-finishing of unalloyed and alloyed structural steels.
