Briefing

S7 steel has exceptional impact properties plus the highest hardenability of shock resisting grades of tool steel.

Detailed

Introduction of S7 steel:

S7 mould steel is suitable for a wide range of tool and die work where shock-resistance, medium hot work properties, or for ease of machining due to its unusual combination of properties.

Uses include hot and cold shock applications such as rivet sets, chisels, punches, hot headers and gripper dies. Also good for short run dies used in cold-forging, blanking and bending.

Chemical Composition of S7 steel (%)

C	Si	Mn	P	S	Cr	Mo	V
0.45-0.55	0.20-1.00	0.20-0.90	0.030 max	0.030 max	3.00-3.50	1.30-1.80	0.35 max

Advantages of S7 steel:

Good Machinability . Maximum shock resistance air-hardening hot-work characteristics.

Heat treatment of S7 steel:

Preheat 1200°F to 1300° F prior to raising to forging temperature at 2000 to 2050° F, stop forging at 1700° F and and reheat rather than forge below this temperature. S-7 is subject to decarburization amd should not be held at the forgeing temperture longer than needed.

Following forging, slowly cool by burying in your choice of heat-insulating material to avoid cooling cracks. Do not normalize.

Annealing of S7 steel:

1500° F to 1550° F, cool slowly to 100°F, air-cool. Brinell 197 Max.

Hardening of S7 steel:

In order to maintain the surface chemistry,S7 mould steel should be hardened in a controlled nuetral enviroment. Preheat 1200° F to 1300° F prior to raising to the hardening temperature of 1725° F, holding at this temperature for a minimum of one hour for up to one-inch thickness and one hour for each additional inch of thickness. Sections of 2 1/2 inch or less should be quenched in still air. Once it reaches 150°, the piece should be tempered immediately.

Tempering of S7 steel:

S7 mould steel is usually tempered 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours for each inch of greatest thickness. The tempering temperature varies according to the intended use. For cold working and similar applications, temper at 400°F to 500°F is recommended. For hot applications, temper at 900°F - 1000° F. Never temper at less than 400° F.
