Mechanical Property:
UT: Material will be ultrasonically tested at appropriate stages of the manufacture to ensure the quality, as agreed between seller and purchaser.
Heat Treatment:
Hardness :Annealed(+A) max: 235 BHN
1.2344 tool steel when heat-treatment the preheat Temperature need reach 788°C, and the temperature may be ± 14°C .
1.2344 tool steel when austenitizing ,should keep 5-15 minutes long. If is the salt bath ,temperature should keep in the 996 °C,and shall be ± 5.6 °C. Or is the controlled atmosphere furnaces,temperature should keep in the 1010 °C,and shall be ± 5.6 °C.
Quenching: 1.2344 tool steel Hardening quenching using air cooling, and it’s hardness min is 52 RC.
Tempering: 1.2344 tool steel general tempering temperature is 552°C. Double tempering of Double tempering of H13 tool steel is recommended.
Application:
1.2344 tool steel are frequently used in cold work applications requiring toughness at relatively high hardness
For high-speed forging die. Aluminum, magnesium alloy forging die, hardness select 42-50HRC. Ferrous metal die, hardness select 40-50HRC. Suitable for the application of cracks greater risk of hot die steel, tool steel life of the mold can be 1.5-3 times 5CrNiMo steel
Description:
1.2344 tool steel is characterized by a controlled chromium content along with other alloying elements.
