Uddeholm Sleipner

    A VERY GOOD STEEL FOR ALL TYPES OF SURFACE TREATMENTS

    Uddeholm Sleipner is a high alloyed tool steel with a very broad property profile. It is also a very good steel for all types of surface treatments. This combination means that Uddeholm Sleipner is an extremely versatile conventional tool steel for medium run cold work tooling. Uddeholm Sleipner is a suitable upgrade where added chipping or wear resistance is needed over traditional AISI A2 or AISI D2.
