Description

Steel U12A is used: for the manufacture of cores; hand taps, files, metal scrapers; parts dies of cold forming, trimming and punching of small size and no transitions in the cross section; cold forging punches and dies for small sizes; calibers simple form and low accuracy classes; tools with low wear resistance at moderate and high specific pressure (without heating the cutting edge): nail files, razor blades and knives, sharp surgical tools, scrapers, engraving tools; cold-rolled heat-treated ribbon with a thickness of 0.05 to 1.30 mm and rolled heat-treated strip thickness 0.15−2.00 mm for the manufacture of spring details and springs, with the exception of clockwork.

Fe is the basis.
According to GOST 1435-99, the mass fraction of chromium, nickel and copper is indicated for 1 group of metal products. The mass fraction of sulfur in steel obtained by the electroslag remelting method should not exceed 0.013%. In the metal products of the 2nd group, the mass fraction of Cr ≤ 0.12%, Ni ≤ 0.12%, Cu ≤0.20% and their total mass fraction ≤ 0.40%. In the metal products of the third group, the mass fraction of Cr ≤ 0.20-0.40%, Ni ≤ 0.25%, Cu ≤0.25%. In metal products of the 1 st and 3 rd groups, made of steel obtained by scrap-process, the mass fractions of nickel, copper and chromium are increased by 0.05% of each element as compared to those in the table. In a metal designed for the manufacture of cold-rolled strip, an increase in the mass fraction of nickel, copper and chromium is not allowed.
According to TU 14-1-505-73, by agreement of the parties for special purpose hardware, steel should be supplied with reduced content limits of elements without treatment with synthetic slag and purging with argon.
