Heat the SKD61 tool steel parts to tempering temperature, soak enough time until to Soak thoroughly. The usual tempering temperature range is 400-650°C(752-1202°F), It depend on the tools hardness require and the operating temperature. SKD61 tempering data for your reference as below:

 

Temperature [°C]	400	500	550	600	650
Hardness [HRc]	54	56	54	49	47

 

One of the key characteristics of SKD61 tool steel is its excellent high-temperature strength. It can withstand elevated temperatures without significant loss of hardness or mechanical properties. This makes it ideal for use in hot work applications such as die casting, hot forging, and extrusion dies. The steel's ability to maintain its integrity at high temperatures ensures long tool life and consistent performance in demanding industrial processes.

 

In addition to its high-temperature strength, SKD61 also exhibits outstanding toughness. It can absorb impact and shock loads without fracturing, providing reliable service in applications where tools are subjected to dynamic forces. This toughness is particularly important in tools such as punches, dies, and cutting tools, where sudden impacts or vibrations can occur during operation.

 

Another notable property of SKD61 tool steel is its good wear resistance. It has the ability to resist abrasion and adhesion, which helps to maintain the sharpness and dimensional accuracy of tools over time. This wear resistance is achieved through a combination of its chemical composition and heat treatment process, which results in a hardened and tempered microstructure.

 

SKD61 tool steel is also known for its excellent machinability. It can be easily machined into complex shapes and geometries using conventional machining techniques. This allows for efficient and cost-effective production of tools, reducing manufacturing time and costs.

 

Furthermore, SKD61 has good hardenability, meaning it can be uniformly hardened throughout its cross-section. This ensures that the entire tool has consistent mechanical properties, enhancing its overall performance and durability.
