Tool Steel Fabrication

Tool steel is a group of high-carbon and alloy steels designed for exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and toughness. Common types include A2, D2, O1, S7, H13, and M2. They are used for dies, punches, molds, cutting tools, and wear components that must withstand repeated impact and abrasion.

Tool Steel FAQ

Can tool steel be welded?

Tool steel can be welded but requires careful preheat, controlled interpass temperature, and post-weld heat treatment to avoid cracking. Not all tool steels are equally weldable; air-hardening grades like A2 and H13 are more weldable than high-carbon types like D2 and O1.
