West Yorkshire Steel supply high carbon high chromium 1.2080 material in rounds and flats cut from plate. This steel grade is noted for its resistance to abrasion. It has excellent dimensional stability in hardening. After heat treatment the steel is hard, durable and is immune from sinking. It offers a measure of corrosion resistance if polished. In general the applications of 1.2080 steel resemble those of 1.2379 but it should be remembered that 1.2080 has better wear resistance of the two steels and is preferred for such items as shear blades. Owing to its higher wear resistance 1.2080 tool steel is slightly more difficult to grind than 1.2379. The steel can be cut to required sizes.
