Description
DIN EN 1.2842 steel (90MnCrV8) is a European standard cold work tool steel and one of the most widely used tool steels, with high dimensional stability and edge retention and good machinability. Its properties and applications are basically the same as the material 1.2510 (100MnCrW4). In terms of its performance, DIN 1.2842 tool steel is comparable to the material 1.2510. Steel 1.2510 contains tungsten (W) element, which makes it have higher wear resistance and tempering resistance. DIN 1.2842 steel is suitable for cutting and punching tools, little shear blades, thread cutting rings and jaws, reamers, measuring tools, plastic and rubber molds. The following tables show 1.2842 steel datasheet and specification including chemical composition, physical properties and mechanical properties, heat treatment, etc. 1.2842 steel chemical composition is listed in the following table based on cast analysis.
