Detailed Description
Product: AISI O-6
Key words: graphitic tool steel,tool steel,die steel,specialty steel,steel bar,hotwork,coldwork,forged bar,alloy tool steel,flat bar, round bar
Typical Analysis:
C: 1.25-1.55
Si: 0.55-1.50
Mn: 0.30-1.10
P: MAX 0.030
S: MAX 0.030
Cr: Max 0.30
Mo: 0.20-0.30
Advantages:
1.Excellent non-seizing properties.
2.Good size stability for an oil hardening tool steel.
Availability:
Limited.
Applications:
O-6 has good size stability and excellent non seizing properties which make it a popular choice for metal on metal abrasive applications. Some typical choices are thread gages, draw dies, bushings, cam's and wear plates.
Machinability:
O-6 in the annealed condition has a machinability rating of 90% of a 1% carbon tool steel. It also has a good grindability rating.
Annealing:
O-6 should be atmosphere or vacuum annealed at 1450°F. Furnace cool to 1000°F, at approximately 100° per hour, then finish cooling in still air. This should result in a maximum Brinell hardness of 229.
