Abstract
Tool steels are materials designed for shaping and machining other materials, characterized by high hardness and durability under severe service conditions. Their composition is based on alloys rich in carbide-forming elements such as chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, and vanadium, which enhance wear resistance. Cold-work tool steels from the ASTM D series, particularly D2 steel, have high …
