Malzeme 1.2343
Hot work tool steel
Material 1.2343 - versatile tool steel for hot work
The material 1.2343 (X37CrMoV5-1) belongs to the group of tool steels and to the subgroup tool steel for hot work.
Typical applications for the material 1.2343 are:
- Die casting tools as well as ingot molds in light metal processing.
- Tools in extrusion plants
- Dies and die inserts in forging shops
- Mandrel bars for the production of seamless tubes
- Plastic molds, mold inserts
- Extruder screws, extruder barrels
- Ejector pins
- Die holders, chucks
- reinforcement rings
Material 1.2343- what characterizes this steel
This tool steel for hot work is a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloy.
The chemical composition of material 1.2343 is:
C: 0,37 %
Si: 1.00 %
Mn: 0,40 %
Cr: 5.30 %
Mo: 1.30 %
V: 0,40 %
The alloy exhibits first-class toughness, good thermal shock resistance, high high-temperature strength and good hot wear resistance.
An essential factor in the manufacturing process of heavily loaded tools is proper heat treatment. Tempering twice allows the microstructural transformation to complete. For maximum toughness, three times of tempering is recommended.
This procedure reduces the risk of premature tool wear.
