S7 Tool Steel Bar Stock
S7 tool steel is a shock-resistant, air-hardening alloy designed for
exceptional impact resistance, toughness, and high strength. Belonging to the
chromium-based hot-work tool steel family, S7 is a versatile material widely
used in the tool and die industry for demanding applications.
Key Properties of S7 Tool Steel
-
Shock Absorption: Excellent resistance to impact and sudden
loading, making it ideal for high-stress environments. -
Air-Hardening: Can be hardened by cooling in air, reducing
distortion and cracking compared to oil or water quenching. -
Hardness Range: Achieves 54–60 HRC, offering strong wear
resistance and edge retention. -
Machinability: Easy to machine, weld, and form using
standard methods.
