APH TOOLING APH is a high speed steel, manufactured using a unique powder metallurgy process to produce a uniform grain structure.
  • APH's uniform structure encompasses all of the 4 key properties of punch tool steel:
      Hardness
      Toughness
      Impact Strength
      Wear Resistance
  • Provides trouble free productivity.
  • APH offers a low friction co-efficient. Increased punch life between punch grinds.
  • Example:
      Material: 2.0mm Stainless Steel
      Tool: 30 x 5mm Rectangle
