Tool Steel Cr12MoV (annealed) is a high-carbon, 12% chromium cold-work steel with very high wear resistance, suited to dies and molds, though it has low toughness.
Tool Steel Cr12MoV (GB/T 1299) is a high-carbon, 12% chromium cold-work tool steel with 1.45–1.70% carbon, 0.40–0.60% molybdenum, and 0.15–0.30% vanadium. It reaches about 58–60 HRC after hardening, with extremely high wear resistance and low toughness.
Tool Steel Cr12MoV is a good option for cold-work dies, molds, and wear-resistant tooling.
