W. Nr 1.2344 | X40CrMoV51

Hot mold steel. It has good forgeability and responds optimally to heat treatment. It effectively resists repeated heating and cooling cycles and the erosive action of metals induced in the molds. This material is used for the construction ofmolds for die casting of aluminum alloys, inserts for press molding, heels and containers, hot punches and dies, molds for bolts, extrusion dies, blades for hot shears, molds for materials plastics, profiling rollers, etc.
