High Wear Resistant
HCHCR-D3/ DIN 1.2080 / AISI D3 / Cr12
HCHCR D3 is a high-carbon, high-chromium cold work steel built for extreme wear applications. It provides very high hardness and abrasion resistance for long tool life. The grade offers strong dimensional stability for precision tooling accuracy. High compressive strength helps resist deformation under heavy loads. Used in blanking, punching, and cutting tools requiring durability.
