Aobo Steel supply 1.2714 steel for your project
Premium 1.2714 Tool Steel Supplier for Unmatched Durability
1.2714 tool steel is a versatile and high-strength alloy used primarily in manufacturing tools and dies. It belongs to the group of hot-work tool steels, offering excellent toughness, wear resistance, and good hardenability. This makes it highly suitable for heavy-duty applications where tools and dies are subjected to high mechanical stress and temperature.
Most cost-effective, high-quality supplier of D2 steel
We offer both D2 electric furnace steel and D2 ESR steel. Considering our customers’ purchasing costs, we produce D2 round bars with diameters under 200mm using the electric furnace method, which can meet Ultrasonic testing (UT) Sep 1921-84 D/d flaw detection. Customers can purchase high-standard D2 round bars at a lower cost. We adopt the ESR process for diameters above 200mm to ensure that the internal structure can meet Ultrasonic testing (UT) Sep 1921-84 E/e flaw detection.
Excellent D2 Forged Steel Supplier
Aobo Steel has over 20 years of experience in forging D2 steel, giving us a deep practical understanding of quality control in this field. Our D2 forged steel products mainly come in round bar, plate, and block shapes. We have over 40 suppliers providing the best processing services, enabling us to offer advantages such as short lead times, stable quality, and competitive prices.
