Aisi a2 data sheet aisi a2 is an air or oil chromium molybdenum vanadium tool steel.

A2 steel sheets.

Tight tolerance multipurpose oil hardening o1 tool steel sheets and bars. 215 hb color code red green applications aisi a2 offers an excellent combination of good wear resistance and toughness. It s highly wear resistant and moderately tough. When air quenched from the proper hardening temperature a2 will expand 0 001 in in.

Characteristics of a2 flat ground include good machinability high compressive strength very good non deforming properties deep hardening and high dimensional stability after hardening and tempering. A2 provides an effective combination of strength and toughness tool. It has wear resistance intermediate between the oil hardening tool steels o1 and the high carbon chromium tool steels d2. Because it offers a combination of good toughness along with moderate wear resistance it has been widely used for many years in variety of cold work applications which require fairly.

A2 is also an air hardening tool steel but includes less than half the chromium 4 75 5 50 and a bit less carbon 0 95 1 05 than d2. The thickness length and width are oversized for finishing to your exact requirements. A2 is an air hardening medium alloy tool steel which is heat treatable to hrc 60 62.

A2 tool steel is an air hardened tool that is known for its versatility non deforming properties and high level of toughness.

A2 tool steel properties. A2 medium carbon chromium alloy steel is a member of the cold work tool steel group designated by the american iron and steel institute aisi which includes o1 low carbon steel a2 steel and d2 high carbon high chromium steel. The thickness length and width are oversized for finishing to your exact requirements. A2 tool steel is a versatile air hardening tool steel that is characterized by good toughness and excellent dimensional stability in heat treatment.

Like d2 it is incredibly resistant to distortion during heat treating and is moderately machinable and grindable. A2 is the most common grade of steel bar used to make tools for shaping metal wood and other materials. Tight tolerance multipurpose air hardening a2 tool steel rods. These precision ground sheets and bars are held to a tight thickness tolerance.
