1.2083 ESR (Electro-Slag Remelted) is a high-quality corrosion-resistant tool steel with exceptional purity and improved mechanical properties compared to the standard 1.2083. The ESR process significantly enhances the uniformity and cleanliness of the material by removing impurities, making it ideal for high-precision applications, particularly in the plastic molding, medical, and food industries. This material is particularly suitable for use…
1.2083 is a high-chromium corrosion-resistant plastic mold steel with excellent corrosion resistance, high wear resistance, and good polishability. Due to its high chromium content (up to 13%), it offers strong resistance to acid and oxidation, making it ideal for plastic molds, medical instruments, and the food industry, where high corrosion resistance is required. Equivalent Standards: Key…
DH2F is a pre-hardened hot work tool steel with excellent toughness, heat resistance, and machinability. It is commonly used in die-casting molds, forging dies, and plastic molds requiring high strength and thermal stability. DH2F is developed as an improved version of SKD61 (AISI H13, DIN 1.2344) but comes in a pre-hardened condition (typically 37-43 HRC), eliminating the…
PD613 is a high-performance cold work tool steel with excellent toughness, wear resistance, and good machinability. It is developed for use in applications requiring high precision, long tool life, and resistance to impact and wear. PD613 is commonly used in precision stamping dies, punches, and forming tools. This material is considered an improved version of SKD11…
SKS3 is a cold work tool steel known for its high toughness, good wear resistance, and excellent machinability. It belongs to the same category as AISI O1 (Oil-Hardening Steel) and DIN 1.2510, making it a widely used material for cutting tools, punches, dies, and knives. Due to its high carbon and chromium content, SKS3 offers good…
S45C is a medium-carbon steel with good mechanical strength, machinability, and wear resistance. It is widely used in engineering, machinery, and mold applications where moderate strength and hardness are required. S45C is equivalent to AISI 1045 (USA), DIN C45 (Germany), and JIS S45C (Japan), making it one of the most commonly used carbon steels for general engineering…
