I am doing a tool wear study using tools fabricated from h13. I'm considering using them without heat treatment in the hopes that I will be able to observe more wear. Is this a good idea or are there adverse consequences to using tools of this material which are not heat treated?
I'm using these tools in FSW (Friction Stir Welding). If you are not familiar with the process, here's a link to the wiki which gives a good overview:
