H11 Tool Steel http://www.techsteel.net/alloy/tool-steel/h11
H-11 tool steel is a 5% chromium hot work steel that is characterized by excellent impact toughness
It contains less vanadium than the widely-used H13 tool steel providing for the higher toughness, with some reduction in wear resistance and temper resistance.
H11 tool steel is a deep-hardening, air-hardening steel that exhibits minimal size change during heat treatment.
As a result, H11 tool steel is widely used in the aerospace industry.
H11 tool steel is recommended for hot tooling applications where maximum resistance to cracking is required such as:
? Aircraft landing gear
? Hot punches
? Die casting dies
? Forging dies
? Hot shear blades
? Hot gripper dies
? Extrusion tooling
H11 tool steel is manufactured to 4 AMS specs:
AMS 6437, AMS 6485, AMS 6487, AMS 6488
