About D3 die Steel Round Bar

Steel World is stockiest, supplier,dealer and manufacturer of the D3 Die Steel Round Bar.D3 Die Steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel commonly used in various applications. Lets dive into the details:

Composition:
- Carbon : 2.00% - 2.35%
- Chromium (Cr): 11.0% - 13.0%
- Silicon (Si): 0.10% - 0.60%
- Manganese (Mn): 0.10% - 0.60%
- Vanadium (V): 0.07% - 0.12%
Properties:
- Hardness: D3 Die Steel achieves a hardness of 57-58 HRC after proper heat treatment.
- Wear Resistance: It offers excellent dimensional stability and wear resistance.
- Applications: Commonly used for cutting tools (sheets up to 4 mm thickness), trimming dies, blanking dies for paper and plastics, shear cutting edges, and rotational shear edges (up to 2 mm sheet thickness).
Heat Treatment:
- Forging: Pre-heat D3 Die Steel to 900-950C, then increase to 1050-1100C. Soak until evenly warm. Final forging temperature should not be less than 900C.
- Stress Relieving: Heat to approx 600-650C after rough machining and soak well before cooling.
- Normalizing: Achieves a hardness of 55 HRC.
- Annealing: Heat gently to 900C and soak for 3-4 hours before cooling.
Physical Properties:
- Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (20-600C): 10.7 x 10 m/(mK)
- Thermal Conductivity (20C): 16.6 W/(mK)

Superior Edge Retention and Wear Resistance

D3 die steel round bars are known for their excellent edge retention, making them highly suitable for tools and dies that demand both precision and longevity. Their fine carbide distribution further enhances resistance to wear, ensuring reliable performance even under rigorous operating conditions.

Tailored Solutions with Precise Dimensions

With high shape precision and adherence to H11/H13 standard tolerances, each D3 die steel bar is manufactured to meet strict dimensional requirements. Custom cutting services are available, ensuring that each piece fits perfectly into your production workflow, saving time and reducing waste.

FAQ's of D3 die Steel Round Bar:

Q: How should D3 die steel round bars be processed for maximum hardness?

A: D3 die steel round bars require heat treatment followed by oil quenching to achieve optimal hardness. It is supplied in the annealed condition to allow easier machining prior to the final hardening process.

Q: What applications benefit most from using D3 die steel round bars?

A: D3 die steel is ideal for manufacturing dies, blanking tools, punches, shear blades, and components that require exceptional wear resistance, high edge retention, and dimensional stability.

Q: When is it recommended to use cutting services for D3 die steel bars?

A: Cutting services are recommended when precise lengths are necessary or when the standard maximum bar length of 6 meters exceeds your application's requirements, providing convenience and minimizing onsite preparation.

Q: Where can I source D3 die steel round bars in India?

A: These bars are available throughout India via a wide network of dealers, distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, producers, retailers, service providers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers.

Q: What is the machinability of D3 die steel round bars, and how does it affect tool selection?

A: D3 die steel offers medium to low machinability, which means using high-quality cutting tools and proper machining parameters is essential to ensure efficient processing and extend tool life.

Q: What are the benefits of the fine carbide distributed microstructure in D3 die steel?

A: A fine carbide distribution provides uniform hardness and enhances both edge retention and resistance to abrasive wear, crucial for prolonging the service life of tools and components.
