CHEMICAL COMPOSITION (Typical Analysis in %)
| C | Si | Mn | P(Max) | S(Max) | Ci | Mo | W | V |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.40-1.60 | 0.10-0.60 | 0.20-0.60 | 0.030max | 0.030max | 11.00-13.00 | 0.70-1.00 | 0.40-0.6 | 0.80-1.20 |
APPLICATION
Applications of D5 steels include thread rolling, blanking or forming dies operating at temperatures below 482°C (900°F).
HEAT TREATMENT
D5 steels should be preheated very slowly up to 815°C (1500°F), then temperature should be increased to 1009°C (1850°F) and held for 20 to 45 minutes. Then they are air quenched.
FORGING
Forging of D5 steels can be done at 1065°C (1950°F) down to 1750°F. Do not forge below 926°C (1700°F).
ANNEALING
Annealing of D5 steels should be done at 886°C (1627°F) followed by slow furnace cooling at 4°C (40°F) per hour or less.
TEMPERING
D5 steels can be tempered at 204°C (400°F) for achieving Rockwell C hardness of 61 and at 537°C (1000°F) for a Rockwell C hardness of 54.
