Latrobe GSN is an oil or air hardening high-carbon, high-chromium type of die steel developed to withstand the most severe abrasive action. It is a general purpose cold forming tool and die steel. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and elasticity as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: TS-159. Producer or source: Latrobe Steel Company.

GSN is an oil-hardening, high-carbon high-chromium die steel developed for high wear and abrasion resistance. It is outstanding among non-deforming oil-hardening steels, holding size almost as well as high-carbon high-chromium air-hardening die steels. It is used on specialized applications such as draw dies, forming rolls, powder-metal tooling and lamination dies. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, and elasticity as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on heat treating and machining.
