Here are some common mold steel codes and their characteristics. Different mold steels are suitable for different mold manufacturing needs. When selecting mold steel, it is necessary to choose according to specific usage conditions and requirements to ensure the quality and performance of the mold.
1. P20 steel: P20 steel is a commonly used mold steel, also known as 1.2311 steel. It has good cutting performance, high hardness, and good wear resistance, suitable for manufacturing small and medium-sized molds and plastic molds.
2. 718 steel: 718 steel is a high-strength, high hardness mold steel, also known as 1.2738 steel. It has good wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance, and is suitable for manufacturing large molds and high demand plastic molds.
3. H13 steel: H13 steel is a hot work die steel, also known as 4Cr5MoSiV1 steel. It has excellent heat resistance, wear resistance, and impact resistance, and is suitable for manufacturing molds under high-temperature working conditions, such as die-casting molds and hot work molds.
4. S136 steel: S136 steel is a type of stainless steel mold steel, also known as 4Cr13MoV steel. It has good corrosion resistance, high hardness, and good cutting performance, suitable for manufacturing high demand plastic molds and optical molds.
5. NAK80 steel: NAK80 steel is a high hardness and high wear resistance mold steel, also known as 10Ni3MnCuAl steel. It has good cutting performance and high wear resistance, suitable for manufacturing high demand plastic molds and die-casting molds.
6. 2316 steel: 2316 steel is a type of stainless steel mold steel, also known as X36CrMo17 steel. It has good corrosion resistance, high hardness, and good cutting performance, suitable for manufacturing high demand plastic molds and optical molds.
7. 8407 steel: 8407 steel is a type of mold steel with high hardness and wear resistance, also known as 4Cr5MoSiV steel. It has good cutting performance and high wear resistance, suitable for manufacturing high demand plastic molds and die-casting molds.
