Value Collection 07990351 D2 Tool Steel Flat Stock

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 07990351 is a D2 tool steel flat stock bar used in toolmaking, die making, and precision machining applications. It measures 18 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 3/4 inch in thickness, weighing 3.87 pounds. D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium cold-work tool steel known for excellent wear resistance and dimensional stability after heat treatment. Machinists, tool and die makers, and industrial fabricators use this flat stock as raw material for punches, dies, cutting tools, and wear components. Tight dimensional tolerances make it suitable for precision applications where consistency matters.

This flat stock is used in machine shops, tool rooms, and fabrication facilities handling cold-work tooling and die applications. It serves as starting material for blanks that will be machined, ground, and heat treated into finished tooling components. Typical applications include blanking dies, forming tools, gauges, and wear plates in both production and prototype settings. The 18-inch length accommodates a range of standard tooling blank sizes without excessive material waste.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose D2 tool steel flat stock blank suitable for cold-work tooling, die making, and precision machining applications where high-wear, dimensionally stable raw material is required.

Installation Notes

This is raw flat stock material intended for further machining and fabrication by qualified machinists or tool and die makers. Use appropriate cutting fluids and tooling rated for high-alloy tool steels when machining. Heat treatment should be performed by qualified personnel following established procedures for D2 tool steel. Store flat stock on a level surface to prevent warping or bowing before machining.
