 An oil hardening DIN specification which hardens at a relatively low temperature with
 minimum distortion.

 A DIN tool steel giving a good hardness with added toughness. This grade
 can be vacuum hardened when minimum distortion is required.

 A DIN tool steel which has a high carbon, high chromium content and attains a high hardness with 
 good abrasion resistance.

 An air hardening tool steel. It characteristics are its high abrasion
 resistance with good toughness.

 This is a hot work tool steel specification.  It is air hardening with very little distortion. 

 A shock resisting DIN specification tool steel, with good abrasion resistance. When hardened it 
 offers a good cutting ability with great toughness

 This is is a pre-hardened high tensile steel which is readily machineable.  40CrMnMoS86 is a
 similar grade with a higher sulphur content

 A 4 1/4% nickel steel, which achieves a good through hardness. This DIN grade is capable of taking
 a good polish and is commonly used as a plastic mould steel.

 A high speed steel, which offers good wear resistance with superior toughness and machineability.

 A 13% chromium stainless mould steel which will achieve a good hardness and gives a good
 polish. It is resistant to attack from corrosive plastics.
