Comparative analysis
The domestically produced Cr12Mo1V1 steel, the United States D2 steel, and the Japanese SKD11 steel, although the chemical composition of the three are the same, the performance varies greatly. After heat treatment, the color of homemade steel is slightly orange red, deformation is generally very large, and it is easy to accidentally cause fatigue fracture in actual use; D2 steel is cold and white in color, hardness is lower than that of SKD11 steel, toughness is not as good as SKD11 steel, and small gaps are likely to occur at high stress; SKD11 steel is light and smooth, with the best overall performance.

Typical application example
1) For refrigerator compressor back cover drawing die, quenching hardness 56~58HRC.
2) In order to improve the service life of the flat rolled D2 cold working die steel, the method of adding rare earth will greatly improve the wear resistance and impact toughness of the steel, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the service life of the round die flat rolled steel. .
3) Since the content of V and Mo in D2 steel is higher than that of Cr12MoV steel, it has better overall performance, and the traditional Cr12MoV steel will gradually be replaced.
4) The rolling die made of D2 steel and the cold die from the adjusting plate at the off-set stage can increase the service life by 5 to 6 times compared with Cr12MoV steel. Application
