TOOL STEEL GRADES WE OFFER

We offer a wide range of Tool Steel grades that are particularly well-suited to be made into tools and tooling, including cutting tools, dies, hand tools, knives, and many more. With every grade's page we have provided a datasheet for your persual. The alloy is Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr), Molybdenum (Mo) and Carbon (C) based, which contains additonal elements like Vanadium (V) and Manganese (Mn) to enhance desired properties. It generally has distinctive hardness, resistance to abrasion and deformation, and their ability to hold a cutting edge at elevated temperatures.

There are six groups of tool steels: water-hardening, cold-work, shock-resistant, high-speed, hot-work, and special purpose. The choice of group to select depends on cost, working temperature, required surface hardness, strength, shock resistance, and toughness requirements. The more severe the service condition (higher temperature, abrasiveness, corrosiveness, loading), the higher the alloy content and consequent amount of carbides required for the tool steel.

The alloys are usually cost effective in terms of toughness compared to Nickel Alloys. Find the list of Tool Steel Grades Raykam Alloys offer below.
