Cold-work tool steel 1.2379 is a high carbon and chromium steel, known for its excellent wear resistance and toughness. Commonly known as D2 steel, it is widely used in low temperature and cold forming applications due to its excellent properties. This type of steel offers excellent dimensional stability and resistance to deformation under high stress conditions. With proper heat treatment, 1.2379 steel can achieve high hardness and is suitable for use in cutting tools, punches and dies. Its ability to retain sharp edges and wear resistance, make it a preferred choice in tough industrial applications.
