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.

Chemistry Information : O1 Tool Steel
This rectangle bar measures 0.25 inches in thickness and 1.75 inches in width, made from O1 tool steel. It is precision ground for excellent dimensional stability and has a maximum length of 36 inches.
Yes, the product is available in two standard lengths of 18 and 36 inches, but custom cutting is not offered from the warehouse for this item.
O1 tool steel is commonly used in rolls, punches, shear knives, food processing knives, and gauges due to its good dimensional stability during heat treatment and general-purpose tool steel properties.
O1 offers a machinability rating of 95 and an ultimate tensile strength of 105 ksi, making it easier to machine than harder steels like A-2 or D-2, while experiencing less distortion during heat treatment.
Yes, an MTR is available for this product, providing assurance of its chemical and mechanical properties.
