Mold-Quality P20 Tool Steel Rods
Machine detailed molds and dies that meet the demands of injection molding and hydraulic clamping. Tough and wear resistant, P20 tool steel withstands high forces and abrasion. Its low carbon content makes it easy to cut small channels and grooves without wearing out your tools. You can polish the surface to a highly smooth finish, so molds and dies last over time.

Air-Hardening A2 Tool Steel Rods
Made of A2 steel, they are more wear resistant than O1 rods and discs. They also keep a sharper cutting edge. When heat treated for added wear resistance, they don’t require baths or quenching and can be air-hardened. A2 tool steel is widely used for punches, blades, and hammers. These rods and discs are decarb-free, which means any surface flaws created during the manufacturing process have been removed. This makes them more machinable and leads to better results from heat treating or finishing. With an oversized diameter, these rods and discs let you finish to your exact requirements.
