Chemical Composition(%)

Heat Treatment

Annealed: AISI D6 tool steel is supplied in the annealed and machineable condition. Re-annealing will only be necessary if the tool steel has been forged or hardened by the toolmaker. To anneal heat to 800-840°C and slow furnace cool. Hardness after annealing will be approximately 225 brinell.

Capacity

1,000 ton per month.

Test
