CNC Machining Tool Steel

CNC machining produces precise, durable metal parts from tool steel, a material known for its high hardness, wear resistance, and strength. With suitable material selection and heat treatment, CNC-machined tool steel parts offer reliable performance in cutting tools, molds, dies, punches, fixtures, and other industrial tooling applications.

Advantages of CNC Machining Tool Steel

  • High Hardness and Wear Resistance
  • Excellent Strength
  • Good Toughness
  • Excellent Edge Retention
  • Heat-Treatment Capability
  • Long Service Life

Available Tool Steel Types

Tool Steel A2

Tool Steel A2, also known as AISI A2, UNS T30102, or DIN 1.2363, is an air-hardening cold-work tool steel containing chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium. It offers a balanced combination of high hardenability, wear resistance, toughness, compressive strength, and dimensional stability after heat treatment.
