1.2316 plastic mold steel
1.2316 plastic mold steel has 17% chromium element, its corrosion resistance and polishing performance are great, pre-hardening hardness is 34 – 40 HRC. 2316 steel material has great mechanical properties, so it is widely used in the plastic mould industry.
2316 Steel Application
1. Die-Casting Mold
2.Injection Mold
3. Extrusion Die
4. Precision stamping die
5. Cold extrusion molding die
6. Standard formwork
7. Various silicon steel sheets and high-speed punching dies
1.Forging temperature is 105℃ – 850℃.
2.Annealing: Heat temperature is 750℃ – 800℃, keeps warm for 1h – 3h, then furnace cooling.
3.The temperature of first-time pre-heat for the quenching is 550℃ – 650℃. The second time is 800℃ – 850℃. Then raise it to 1020℃ – 1050℃. Using air cooling and oil quenching.
4.For the tempering, heating to 180℃ – 200℃, then air cooling.
5.Temperature is 200℃ – 600℃ for the second time of heating. But you need to choose the temperature according to the requests.
