Tool Steel Forged Parts

Tool Steel Forged Parts

Tool Steel is typically formed into cutting tools, drills, and tap and die sets to use for finish machining of other materials, including open die forging and seamless rolled rings in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, titanium, and aluminum.  These cutting tools are also used in CNC machines and metal lathes.

Tool steels can be used for other shapes for molds or tools due to its high hardness and abrasion resistance.  Tool steels are made with chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, and tungsten to form carbides, making the surface resistant to deformation while maintaining sharp cutting edges at high temperatures experienced during the high cutting forces and temperatures during machining.  It can also resist high-impact forces and repetitive stresses while absorbing shock during high-speed machining.

Common material specifications are ASTM A681 and American Iron and Steel Institute standards.  The chemical and mechanical properties of tool steels make them an excellent choice for component parts finish machined from round, flat, square and hex bars, blocks and rectangles, discs and rings, cylinders, or shapes with steps, flanges, or complex finish machining requirements.

All Metals & Forge Group takes great pride in maintaining one of the most stringent ISO9001, AS9100 quality systems in the open die forging and seamless rolled ring industry.  It begins with learning the customer’s end use, required forging surface condition, mechanical properties of the specified material and alloy, forged shape, heat treatment, delivery need, and competitive price, coupled with forging soundness proven by ultrasonic testing, and care in packing goods to arrive in pristine condition at the customer’s desired location.  Every step is monitored by the quality system at AMFG and continuously improved.

AMFG performs rough machining to within 3mm of finish dimensions to reduce the CNC cost at the customer’s machine shop for all the forged shapes the company produces.  The rough machine surface condition is 250 RMS so that proper quality testing can be performed on each part – the AMFG standard.  

The company can perform finish machining to within .001 of an inch for final tolerance and 64 or 32 RMS surface finish.  This level of quality and precision is unique in an industry where other company’s parts are often delivered black, as forged, or with a rough machined surface of 500 RMS without the internal or external steps and dimensions to reduce machining costs.

From inquiry to invoice, All Metals & Forge Group quality is managed and not assumed. Whether the need is for one part, an entire project, or a production run, AMFG delivers.
