Abstract

Abstract A tool steel for hot working containing, in weight percent, from 0.25 to 0.60% carbon, not more than 0.6% silicon, from 0.50 to 1.50% manganese, from 0.50 to 1.50% nickel, from 1.50 to 3.50% chromium, from 2.00 to 4.50% molybdenum, from 1.20 to 3.00 vanadium, from 0.50 to 5.00% cobalt, balance essentially iron and impurities, or containing, in weight percent, from 0.25 to 0.60% carbon, not more than 0.60% silicon, from 0.50 to 1.50% manganese, from 0.50 to 1.50% nickel, from 1.50 to 3.50% chromium, from 0.50 to 3.50% tungsten, from 1.50 to 3.00% molybdenum, from 1.20 to 3.00% vanadium, from 0.50 to 5.00% cobalt, balance essentially iron and impurities. This tool steel affords excellent high temperature mechanical strength, toughness, high temperature wear resistance, and heat check resistance.
