The high-carbon, high-chromium tool steels, designated as group D steels in the AISI classification system, are the most highly alloyed cold-work steels. This chapter describes the microstructures and hardenability of high-carbon, high-chromium tool steels and discusses the processes involved in the hardening and tempering of tool steels. It also covers the selection criteria and applications of high-carbon, high-chromium tool steels.
