Assab Steels DF-3 Cold Work Steel
Categories:	Metal; Ferrous Metal; Tool Steel; Cold Work Steel; Oil-Hardening Steel
Material Notes:	DF-3 general purpose oil-hardening tool steel is a versatile manganese-chromium-tungsten steel suitable for a wide variety of cold-work applications. Its main characteristics include: Good machinability Good dimensional stability in hardening A good combination of high surface hardness and toughness after hardening and tempering. These characteristics combine to give a steel suitable for the manufacture of tooling with good tool-life and high production economy. DF-3 can be supplied in various finishes including hot-rolled, pre-machined, fine-machined and precision ground. It is also available in the form of hollow bar. AISI 01
