D7 Tool Steel
D7 Tool Steel
D7 tool steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium air-hardening tool steel that exhibits exceptional wear resistance. The high carbon and vanadium contents result in numerous, hard vanadium carbide particles in the steel. These carbides exhibit a hardness that is equivalent to approximately 80 to 85 Rockwell C.

Forging/Rolling:
Preheat to 1500° F and soak thoroughly. Then raise to 2050° F – 2125° F. Do not forge or roll below 1800° F, cool slowly from the forging or rolling temperature. Do not normalize.
Annealing:
Heat slowly to 1600° F – 1650° F, and hold for uniformity, furnace cool at a rate of 20° F per hour to 1000° F then air cool. Expect Brinell hardness 235 – 262.
Hardening:
Preheat to 1500° F and soak until uniformly heated and either transfer or raise furnace temperature to 1850° F – 1950° F, and hold 1 hour per inch of greatest thickness. Cool in still air.
Tempering:
Temper immediately after quenching, before part has cooled to below 150° F. Parts should be held a minimum of 2 hours per inch of greatest thickness. Double tempering is recommended. For maximum wear resistance temper at 300° F. The above tempering table may be used as a guide. However, since 1/2″ dia. specimens were used for this test, it may be found that heavier sections are several points lower.
