Does any expert in here could tell me what kind of material is Z200? Any equuivalvent standard for ANSI or UK?

In fact, I got a drawing from France that the material quoted is Z200 with HRC65. Unfortunately the local supplier have no any idea about Z200, so am I.

Many thanks for your kindly help.

Looks very much like a French (AFNOR) designation, but the number is incomplete. Z200 defines carbon content, but the other alloy elements are missing. It is most likely Z200C12 or Z200C13 - a cold-work tool steel often used for dies and punches. Rockwell 64 is given as 'obtainable' in the literature. It is 1.2080 in the German WL (aerospace materials) book, D3 in AISI, T30403 in UNS. Bohler in Austria is one source (they call it K100)
