SIHARD steel exhibits exceptional dimensional stability, high compressive strength, and toughness.

SIHARD steel is designed for machining and cutting metal, wood, and synthetic materials. Its composition and processing provide the necessary resistance to adhesion, abrasion and cut-edge fragmentation, along with the possibility of nitration, hard PVD, and EDM coatings. This makes it an ideal choice for cyclically loaded tools such as punchers, pressers, die inserts for the compaction of powders, knives, blades, forging, rolling, and deep drawing tools.
