o6 ToolSteelis preferred over others when exact dimensional requirements are required.
It is used in a variety of applications. Because the steel contains a uniform dispersion of graphite particles, the steel has outstanding machining characteristics as well as non-seizing qualities.
In a dry environment, the graphite particles make the steel self-lubricating, and in a lubricated setting, the graphite particles aid in the retention of oil.
O-6 is typically purchased to meet chemical requirements rather than physical requirements. As a result, physical attributes are not provided unless requested explicitly before manufacturing.
O’Hare Precision Metals can provide a wide range of company-supplied or customer-supplied components and materials. Just like how we can offer you the best o6 ToolSteel bar stocks and o6 tool steel round bar stocks in O’Hare!
O6 Tool steel has a microstructure that contains free graphite. This dramatically improves its machinability and wear resistance. Its machinability has been significantly improved due to the presence of free graphite. This is why this is preferred over others when required for exact dimensional requirements.
Stamps, gammers, shear blades, forming rolls, punches, dies, thread gauses, and bushings are only a few of the many applications of o6 tool steel.
