Introduction

DC-53 is a general purpose cold work tool steel with exceptional Toughness, Wear Resistance, Compressive Strength and Temper Resistance. DC53, is an improvement over alloy tool steel D-2. It eliminates the disadvantages of insufficient hardness and toughness.

Smelting method : EAF+LF+VD+ESR

Main Characteristics : Relatively high tenacity, high abrasion performance, little heat treatment dimension deformation, improved coarse carbides and excellent processing performance.

Major Applications : Mainly used for precision cold pressure molds: precision punching and cutting of line cutting processing, stamping dies of various applications, etc.

Long-life automobile covered piece molds: inlaid molds of key parts.

Cut-off dies, edge rolling dies, wire drawing dies and screw dies.
