Isis Metals is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of **D2 Steel Rods** located in Manila, Philippines. They specialize in top-notch tool steels that are designed for outstanding hardness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability. Thanks to their cutting-edge production methods and a commitment to international standards, Isis Metals guarantees that every D2 Steel Rod performs consistently and lasts long. D2 steel, known for its high carbon and chromium content, is perfect for crafting tools and components that need to endure heavy use while keeping their sharp edges intact. Isis Metals caters to various industries throughout the Philippines and beyond, delivering reliable materials for tooling and precision engineering needs.
**D2 Steel Rods** consist of about 1.5% carbon, 12% chromium, 0.9% vanadium, 0.8% molybdenum, along with trace amounts of nickel and silicon, with iron making up the rest. This unique blend results in remarkable hardness (often reaching up to 62 HRC after heat treatment), excellent wear resistance, and decent toughness. D2 is an air-hardening, cold-work tool steel that maintains impressive dimensional stability during heat treatment. Additionally, its high chromium content provides moderate corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications where wear and abrasion resistance are crucial.
