X210CrW12 steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel engineered for exceptional wear resistance and hardness. Its formulation provides the durability your operations require for demanding tooling applications. We recognize that your projects depend on materials that deliver consistent performance under high-stress conditions. This grade, also known as 1.2080 steel, offers a reliable solution for manufacturing tools, dies, and components that must withstand severe abrasion and maintain dimensional stability.
This technical overview provides the detailed information you need for material selection and procurement. You will find comprehensive data on its chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment procedures, and key applications. We will also compare it to similar tool steel grades to assist your decision-making process. At Nifty Alloys, we ensure that every material, including X210CrW12, meets stringent international standards, complete with the certifications your projects demand.
X210CrW12 is a ledeburitic cold-work tool steel, standardized under DIN 1.2080. Its defining characteristics are high carbon and high chromium content, which form hard carbides within the steel matrix. These carbides are essential for its superior wear resistance. You will find this steel grade offers excellent compressive strength and dimensional stability after proper heat treatment.
Engineers specify X210CrW12 for applications where resistance to abrasive wear is the primary requirement. It performs reliably in the production of cutting and shearing tools, stamping dies, and forming rolls. Its ability to retain a sharp cutting edge and resist deformation makes it a cost-effective choice for long production runs. We supply this material to support industries that rely on high-performance tooling for their manufacturing processes.
Selecting X210CrW12 for your tooling applications provides clear operational and economic advantages. Its properties directly translate into enhanced performance and reliability.
