Abstract AISI Type A7 is an air-hardening tool and die steel designed for extremely high resistance to abrasion. Its high carbon and high vanadium contribute to its high abrasion resistance; however, it should be restricted to applications where toughness is not a prime consideration. It can be austenitized, air cooled and tempered to very high hardness (as high as Rockwell C 65). Its numerous applications include brick-mold liners, knives, liners for sand and shot blasting machines, ceramic-tile liners, punches and hand tools. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and elasticity. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: TS-384. Producer or source: Tool steel mills.

Abstract AISI 1566 is a high-carbon (nominally 0.66% carbon) steel containing 0.85-0.15% manganese. Its hardenability is low and on austenitizing and liquid quenching it develops a hard (martensitic) surface with a soft, ductile core. It can be used in the hot-rolled, annealed, normalized, cold-worked or liquid-quenched-and-tempered condition for a wide range of applications. It has good machinability and good workability. Its many uses include springs, shafts, hand tools, railway parts and agricultural machinery. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: CS-100. Producer or source: Carbon steel mills.
