THE KNOCK-OUT STEEL FOR BLANKING AND FORMING
High Speed Steel


High Speed Steels and especially ASP® powder-metallurgy steels produced by Erasteel are used to produce tooling for cold working of metals. This is due to their many advantages in material properties over conventional tool steels (such as D2) :

wear resistance

hardness

mechanical resistance


Among the numerous applications in cold-work tooling applications are :

punches and die sets, especially for blanking and fine blanking

ejector pins

cold-forming tools

compaction dies for powders

cold-extrusion dies

cold-forging tools

rolls for cold rolling
