D2 Steel, a ledeburite tool steel, is widely recognized for its superior wear resistance and toughness. With a carbon content ranging from 1.4 to 1.6% and chromium content between 11.5 to 13%, D2 Steel can be heat treated to achieve a high hardness of up to 60 HRC. This high hardness, coupled with its good impact resistance, makes D2 Steel an ideal material for applications that require long wear life and the ability to withstand high compressive stresses.
D2 Steel is often used in the manufacturing of cold work tools such as dies, punches, shear blades, and extrusion tools. It is also favored for making knives due to its ability to hold a sharp edge and its resistance to chipping and cracking under heavy use. The steel's composition, which includes molybdenum and vanadium, contributes to its overall toughness and wear resistance.
