1.2379 Die Steel, Properties, Application

2019-04-18
1.2379 die steel is a kind of high carbon high chromium alloy tool steel. It has high hardness and wear resistance after heat treatment, and has strong hardenability and good dimensional stability. 1.2379 die steel and NAK80 die steel are suitable for making. High precision long life cold working die and thermosetting plastic mold.

1.2379 Die Steel Properties

● Vacuum degassing and refining treatment to ensure steel purity.
● Spheroidizing annealing softening treatment, good cutting performance.
● Reinforced element vanadium, specially added molybdenum, excellent wear resistance.
Cryogenic Treatment Specification
Cryogenic treatment: For the highest hardness and dimensional stability, the mold is deep-cooled immediately after quenching -70 to -80 ° C for 3-4 hours, then tempered, cryogenically treated tool or mold hardness is more than conventional heat treatment High hardness 1-3HRC. Parts with complex shapes and large dimensional changes, cryogenic treatment has the risk of cracking
