83WV3

Product Description:

83WV3 is a high-carbon, chromium-vanadium tool steel primarily used for manufacturing cutting tools, dies, and other high-performance industrial tools. The alloy has a combination of carbon, chromium, and vanadium, which provides it with excellent hardness, wear resistance, and toughness. It is commonly employed in the production of tools that are exposed to heavy wear and high temperatures, such as punches, dies, and blades.

83WV3 steel is known for its ability to withstand high-impact stresses, making it ideal for manufacturing tools that need to maintain sharpness and precision under challenging working conditions. The alloy also has good hardenability and can be heat-treated to achieve superior strength and hardness, making it suitable for a range of industrial applications.
