A8 COLD WORK DIE STEEL

A8 cold work steel is similar to A2,S7.
The toughness is twice as high as SKD11 cold working steel, making complex dies, and the tensile die has large anti-cracking and collapsing properties. The mold is tempered at 520-530℃, and the hardness is still 61-63HRC, which reduces the cracking accident caused by residual stress of the wire-cutting mold.

3. Suitable for surface hardening treatment, so that the mold life is longer.
