Cheap air-hardening tool steel is a high-strength alloy steel that is hardened by air cooling and is mainly used to manufacture precision tools and molds. Due to its unique heat treatment process, this steel does not require water or oil cooling during the hardening process, which can better avoid deformation and cracks. Air-hardening tool steel has excellent wear resistance, toughness, and stability, and is widely used in high-demand mechanical processing fields, especially in the manufacture of cutting tools, measuring tools, and plastic molds.


The biggest advantage of cheap air-hardening tool steel lies in its stable hardening performance and good wear resistance. Hardening in air not only reduces the deformation caused by the cooling medium, but also ensures that the surface hardness of the steel is evenly distributed, so that it still shows strong durability under high-load working conditions. At the same time, this steel has good machinability and consistency after heat treatment, which can greatly improve processing accuracy and work efficiency. Its excellent corrosion resistance enables air-hardening tool steel to maintain stable performance in harsh working environments.
In modern manufacturing, cheap air-hardening tool steel is increasingly used, especially in the manufacturing process of high-precision tools and complex molds, and has been widely praised by the industry. The air-hardening tool steel provided by TeZhenbang Mold is carefully selected and strictly controlled to ensure that the product can be used stably and long-term in various industrial production, bringing customers higher production efficiency and lower maintenance costs.
