Hot Work Tool Steel

Product Details:

H13 chromium hot-work steel is widely used in aluminum extrusion dies, pipe manufacturing, aluminum profile die manufacturing, hot and cold work tooling applications. Due to its excellent combination of high toughness and fatigue resistance H13 is used more than any other tool steel in tooling applications.

Fabrication and Heat TreatmentMachinability

The machinability rate of H13 tool steels is nearly 75% of that of the W group tool steels.

Forming

H13 tool steels are formed by using conventional methods.

Welding:

H13 tool steels are readily weldable.

Heat Treatment:

H13 tool steels are preheated to 816°C (1500°F). Then the steels are directly heated by increasing the temperature to 1010°C (1850°F) followed by holding for 15 to 40 mins. The steels are then air-quenched.

Forging:

H13 tool steels are forged at 1079°C (1975°F). For this type of steels, forging below 898°C (1650°F) is not preferable.

Annealin:

H13 tool steels are annealed at 871°C (1600°F) and slowly cooled at 4°C (40°F) in the furnace.

Product Details:

Hot Die Steel H11 1.2343 are subjected to minimal distortion during hardening due to their balanced alloy content. The tools produced from chromium hot-work steels can be cooled using water without damage as these steels have low carbon and alloy contents.

Product Details:

Hot work tools operate at elevated temperatures and form different products in e.g. aluminum, steel or other metals.

 

The most common application areas in hot work are die-casting, extrusion and forging. The high working temperatures put very high demands on the tool steel. The properties'' profile of material used for hot work should include an excellent hot strength as well as a very good ductility and toughness.

 

Other important tool steel properties are a high resistance against thermal cyclic stresses and a good hot wear resistance. The properties profile should be even in all directions in the tool steel for best performance.

 

• Good strength at high temperatures
• High ductility and toughness

Our business practice is to offer tooling solutions to the hot work industry with the goal of increasing productivity and optimizing tool life.

Product Details:

Because of its high toughness and very good stability in heat treatment, H13 is also used in a variety of cold work tooling applications. In these applications, H13 provides better hardenability (through hardening in large section thicknesses) and better wear resistance than common alloy steels such as 4140.

Also available as Electro-Slag-Remelted (ESR) and Vacuum-Arc-Remelted (VAR) products as well. The remelting processes provide improved chemical homogeneity, refinement of carbide size, and the associated improvements in mechanical properties and fatigue properties.

APPLICATIONS: Inserts, cores, and cavities for die casting dies, die casting shot sleeves, hot forging dies, extrusion dies, and plastic mold cavities and components that require high toughness and excellent polishability.
