AISI A-2 air hardening cold work tool steel. A-2 is one of the most popular grades of cold work tool steel. It has better wear resistance and toughness and O-1 plus the dimensional stability offered by air hardening qualities. Where even better wear is required (with a corresponding decrease in toughness) consider D-2. Where more toughness is needed consisder A-6 or S-7. If machinability is or prime importance consider A-10. Typical applications include blanking dies, forming rolls, gages, punches, knives, shear blades, and mandrels. Material is being offered in 25 pound bundles of misc. flat and bar sizes.
