Tool Steel Rectangle Bar O1 offers excellent dimensional stability during heat treatment, and otherwise decent attributes. O1 is an oil-hardening, general purpose tool steel. While not as strong or wear resistant as A-2 or D-2, it experiences significantly less distortion during the heat treating process. It is typically used in rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges.

This rectangle bar is precision ground with a thickness of 0.0625 inches and a width of 8 inches. It is made from O1 tool steel, an oil-hardening alloy known for excellent dimensional stability during heat treatment.

The product is available in standard lengths of 18 and 36 inches, with no custom cut warehouse stock, so custom cutting options may be limited or unavailable.

O1 tool steel is commonly used for rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges due to its good dimensional stability and machinability.

Yes, an MTR report is available for this product, providing assurance of its material properties and compliance.

O1 tool steel offers good machinability at 95% and an ultimate tensile strength of 105 ksi, making it less wear resistant but more dimensionally stable during heat treatment compared to A-2 or D-2 alloys.
