D2(KNL)1.2367 Tool Steels
Mascot Steel Centre is proud and offer 1.2367 steel, also known as X38CrMoV5-3, is a high-performance hot work tool steel with excellent toughness and resistance to thermal fatigue. It is widely used for hot work applications where high mechanical strength and wear resistance are essential. It has been refined via ESR process to ensure highest quality standards in terms of grain size, segregation, micro-cleanliness, and purity. EN DIN 1.2367 features high isotropy, reason for which transversal resilience is often three times higher when compared to conventional EN DIN 1.2367. Furthermore, the thermal fatigue resistance is also often much higher than that of conventional hot work tool steel EN DIN 1.2343, enabling longer die lifetime.
Applications
- Wear resisting tools
- Forging dies
- Pressure die casting dies,
- Pressing tools and extrusion dies for light and heavy metals, mandrels
- Making inserts for light alloys die casting dies as well as for thermosets and thermoplastic injection moulding dies.
- Closed dies, punches, stamps and jaws;
- Hot rolling rolls, as well as hot cutting applications, such as circular cutting blades, straight cutting blades and angular cutting blades.
Steel Properties
- Small dimensional variation
- Impact resistance at high temperatures
- Good machinability
- Excellent high temperature strength and wear resistance.
- High hardenability and toughness.
- Tools can be water cooled.
