Decarb-Free Tool Steel Round: 3-3/4" Dia, 72" OAL, D-2 (Air Hardening) Tool Steel MPN:QR03.75X72

Decarb-Free Tool Steel Round is a high carbon high chromium alloy designed for increased wear resistance at elevated temperatures making it suitable for hot work applications. This round has a diameter of 3-3/4 and an overall length of 72. It features D-2 (air hardening) tool steel which provides good toughness, good dimensional stability after heat treatment and excellent resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and abrasion at high temperatures. Typical uses for this round include cutting, forming or punching tools used in industries such as plumbing manufacturing, automotive, tool-making, metalworking, or forging, where parts must withstand extreme heat during operations while maintaining a good edge and prevent deformation or failure due to overheating. Decarb-Free Tool Steel Round offers superior performance compared to standard high-carbon steel at increased temperature range thanks to its excellent carbide formation ability giving better edge holding and wear resistance characteristics.
