1.2714 Tool Steel
Product Overview
1.2714 Tool Steel is a high-performance nickel-chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloyed hot-work die steel. It is specifically engineered for large-scale forging applications where high toughness and excellent through-hardening properties are mandatory.
The addition of Nickel (Ni) significantly enhances its impact strength and resistance to thermal shock, making it far more reliable than standard chromium-based steels for heavy-duty hammers and press inserts.

5)1.2714 Tool Steel Key Feature:
Exceptional Through-Hardening: Achieves uniform hardness even in massive blocks (up to 400mm+ thickness) via oil or air quenching.
Extreme Toughness: High resistance to mechanical shock and"heat checking"(thermal fatigue cracks).
High Red Hardness: Maintains its strength and structural integrity at elevated working temperatures.
Good Machinability: Despite its high alloy content, it offers predictable behavior during CNC and EDM processes.
Superior Polishability: Capable of achieving a high surface finish, reducing friction during the forging process.
6) 1.2714 Tool Steel Application:
1.2714 Tool Steel is the industry standard for high-stress hot working:
Large Forging Dies: For hammers and mechanical presses.
Die Holders & Bolsters: Providing a stable base for smaller inserts.
Hot Shear Blades: For cutting thick metal billets.
Punching & Bending Tools: Requiring high resistance to deformation.
Extrusion Tooling: Liners and stems for non-ferrous metal extrusion.
7)major producer:
