What is D2 Steel Plate (X153CRMOV12, DIN 1.2379)?
D2 Steel, also known as X153CRMOV12 or DIN 1.2379, is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel renowned for its exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and toughness.
This steel grade is widely regarded as one of the best options for sheet metal cutting steel and plastic mould steel due to its ability to retain sharp edges and withstand abrasive conditions.
At Milano Special Steel, we offer D2 Steel Plate in various sizes
25mm x 410mm, 25mm x 510mm, 25mm x 610mm, 25mm x 710mm, 25mm x 810mm, 25mm x 910mm, 25mm x 1010mm, 25mm x 1100mm, 25mm x 1210mm, 25mm x 1250mm, 25mm x 1510mm, 32mm x 410mm, 32mm x 510mm, 32mm x 610mm, 32mm x 710mm, 32mm x 810mm, 32mm x 910mm, 32mm x 1010mm, 32mm x 1100mm, 32mm x 1210mm, 32mm x 1250mm, 32mm x 1510mm
including custom-cut pieces as per customer requirements.

Chemical Composition of D2 Steel (DIN 1.2379)
The unique properties of D2 Steel stem from its carefully balanced composition:
- Carbon (C): 1.4–1.6% – Enhances hardness and wear resistance.
- Chromium (Cr): 11–13% – Improves corrosion resistance and toughness.
- Molybdenum (Mo): 0.7–1.2% – Boosts strength and heat resistance.
- Vanadium (V): 0.8–1.2% – Increases wear resistance and edge retention.
- Manganese (Mn): 0.3–0.6% – Improves hardenability.
- Silicon (Si): 0.1–0.6% – Enhances strength.
This composition makes D2 Steel an ideal choice for demanding industrial applications.

Difference Between D2 Steel and Other Tool Steels
D2 Steel stands out from other tool steels like D3, O1, or A2 due to its high chromium content and balanced toughness.
Unlike D3, which is less tough, or O1, which has lower wear resistance, D2 offers a middle ground that suits sheet metal cutting and plastic mould steel applications.
Its vanadium content also gives it an edge over competitors in terms of wear resistance.
