Latrobe BR-3® High Carbon-Medium Chromium Die Steel (AISI A7)
Categories: Metal; Ferrous Metal; Alloy Steel; Carbon Steel; High Carbon Steel; Tool Steel

Material Notes: BR-3 is a super abrasion resistant cold work die steel, used primarily for special applications subject to extreme wear such as refractory brick mold press liners, shot blast liners, and ceramic tile liners. Because BR-3 contains carefully balanced high percentages of carbon and vanadium, it posses a multitude of hard abrasion resisting vanadium carbides which account for its superior wear resistance.
