Carpenter O6 Graphitic Tool Steel (AISI O6)
Categories:	Metal; Ferrous Metal; Tool Steel; Cold Work Steel; Oil-Hardening Steel
Material Notes:	Carpenter O6 is an oil-hardening tool steel designed for cold work applications. It is designed to have free graphite in the microstructure. This free graphite is responsible for the excellent machining characteristics of this grade. It is available as a DeCarb-Free product. DCF bars have been cold finished in the mill, eliminating the need for bar bark removal. Applications: Blanking dies, Drawing dies, Forming dies, Punches, Hobs for nonferrous metals, Gauges, Cams, Bushings, Mandrels, Piercing dies, Pneumatic hammers, Spinning tools, Stamps, Taps, Edging and metal forming rolls, Jewelers anvils, Rotary slitting cutters, Marking tools, Wear plates Information provided by Carpenter Technology Corporation.
