Applications Wear resisting tools, die casting tools, pressing tools for light and heavy metals. This steel grade can be water cooled.
Physical properties (average values) at ambient temperature Modulus of elasticity [103 x N/mm2]: 210 Density [g/cm3]: 7.83
Soft Annealing Brinell hardness in annealed condition is max. 239.
Normalizing Normalizing temperature: Please ask.
Stress Relieving Stress relieving to remove machining stresses should be carried out by heating to approx. 650oC, holding for 1-2 hours at heat, followed by air cooling. This operation is performed to reduce distortion during heat treatment.
Hardening Please ask.
Tempering Tempering temperature: Please ask.
Forging Hot forming temperature: 1150-850oC.
Machinability No data.
