6CrW2Si Tool Steel common size

The composition and performance of 6CrW2Si steel are similar with 5CrW2Si. 6CrW2Si Tool Steel have a higher quenching hardness and high temperature strength. 6CrW2Si alloy tool steel is generally used as a tool to withstand impact loads and high wear resistance, such as pneumatic tools, chisels, and molds for working under heavy loads, cold shear blades, and air hammer tools.

Typical application of 6CrW2Si

1, 6CrW2Si steel is suitable for manufacturing low-deformation steels.
2, When the mold is mainly in the form of wear and collapse, the steel can be used instead.
3, 6CrW2Si is suitable for the manufacture of scissors, slice punches and so on.
4, 6CrW2Si Tool Steel can be used for heavy duty die, die, casting finishing tools, pneumatic chisels and so on.
5, As a hot working steel, it can produce screws and hot rivet punches.
6, 6CrW2Si Tool Steel is used for high temperature die-cast light alloy head and hot forging die and so on.

6CrW2Si is a type of steel formed by adding a certain amount of tungsten on the basis of chromium-silicon steel, because tungsten helps to retain finer grains at the time of quenching, and gives higher toughness in the tempered state.
