Description
A2 steel is one of the most readily available and widely used tool steel grades. It has deep hardening, low distortion and high heat treatment safety, high resistance to high temperature softening and medium resistance to decarburization. It has a tendency to retain austenite. During tempering and double tempering, austenite is usually eliminated or reduced to a insignificant amount. AISI type A2 tool steel properties are given in the tables below including chemical composition, physical and hardness, etc. The following table list A2 steel chemical composition.
