60WCrV7 Steel


60WCrV7 steel suppliers carrying to the accomplished of the India. Kohli Adamant are stockholders and suppliers of casting 60WCrV7 in round bar. As a shock afraid steel it is ill-fitted for both hot and algid plan applications. It is acceptable for algid plan accoutrement accountable to abundant shock. 60WCrV7 is aswell acclimated with abundant success for chisels and punches adapted for abundant plan on harder and boxy materials. Acceptable for hot plan applications area top fatigue backbone with boilerplate hot acerbity is desirable. The tungsten agreeable of this steel casting confers fatigue resistance, the chromium agreeable provides abyss of acerbity and attrition to abrasion.

We acceptable consign enquiries for 60WCrV7 steel. Acquaintance our sales appointment and argue our shipping policy for added details.

Form of Supply

We are suppliers of fully annealed 60WCrV7 steel round bar. Diameters can be sawn to required lengths as one offs or multiple cuts. Ground tool steel bar can be supplied, providing a precision ground bar to your required tolerances.

Applications

Typical applications include punching tools, trimming dies, shear blades, mandrel bars for drawing steel tubes, swaging, forming and gripper dies.


Carbon 0.55-0.65% Chromium 0.90-1.20%
Manganese 0.15-0.45% Silicon 0.50-0.70%
Tungsten 1.80-2.10% Phosphorous 0.03% max
Vanadium 0.10-0.20% Sulphur 0.03% max

Heat to a temperature of 1000-1050°C and then forge with light rapid blows. Reheat when the temperature falls below 900°C if further work is to be done. After forging, cool slowly, ideally in a furnace.


As this steel specification is supplied in the annealed and machineable condition re-annealing will only be necessary if the steel has been forged or hardened. Heat the steel  slowly and uniformly to 800-810°C. Soak thoroughly for two hours minimum and cool slowly in the furnace.


For applications where the machining operations have been severe we recommend stabilising just before the tools are finish machined to help relieve machining strains. Heat slowly to a temparature of 700°C, allow to cool in air.


Preheat the steel at 650°C followed by rapid increase of temperature to 900-950°C. Quench in oil. Tempering is always recommended.


Heat slowly to the required temperature, soak thoroughly for two hours per 25mm section air cool. For hot work applications, a minimum tempering temperature of 550°C is recommended.

Temperature [°C] 150 200 250 350 400
Hardness [HRc] 58-56 56-54 55-53 53-51 52-49

Heat treatment temperatures, such as rate of heating, cooling and soaking times will vary due to factors including the size and shape of each steel component. Other considerations during the hardening process include the furnace, quench medium and work piece transfer facilities. Please consult your heat treatment specialist for full guidance on heat treatment of 60WCrV7 grade of steel.


60WCrV7 steel is supplied in accordance with our ISO 9001:2008 registration.
