Steel Properties

The exceptional hot work pre-solidified tool steel has great toughness and high wear resistance. DB6 die steel is generally provided in hard, quenched, tempered, and annealed condition, and in strengthened condition in exceptional cases. Normally its working hardness is 360-430 BHN. This steel grade is the updated type of DIN 2713 for higher efficiency and performance.

Applications

Dies for specially drop and close die forgings for hammers & mechanical presses, die moulds, shoe blocks, die holder, piston rods, bolster, cranks, cassettes, plastic moulds, shearing blades, tools, etc.
