Characteristics of NAK80 JIS Plastic Mold Steel
NAK80 JIS Plastic Mold Steel is a pre-hardened, high-precision, and high-performance mold steel.
Machinability: Even in its pre-hardened state, NAK80 steel maintains excellent machinability, reducing processing difficulty and costs.
Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) Performance: NAK80 steel demonstrates good adaptability to EDM, enabling the production of high-precision molds.
Weldability: NAK80 steel possesses favorable weldability, facilitating the repair and modification of molds.
Mirror Polishing Performance: NAK80 steel exhibits outstanding mirror polishing capabilities, achieving a surface finish of #15000 or higher after polishing. It is suitable for manufacturing molds with extremely high surface finish requirements, such as those for transparent products and optical products.
Corrosion Resistance: NAK80 steel offers a certain degree of corrosion resistance, maintaining stable performance in humid or corrosive environments.
Wear Resistance: By incorporating alloying elements such as copper and nickel, NAK80 steel enhances the wear resistance of molds, extending their service life.
Minimal Heat Treatment Distortion: NAK80 steel experiences minimal distortion during heat treatment, making it ideal for manufacturing high-precision molds.
Uniform Microstructure: Produced using the Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) process, NAK80 steel features a uniform microstructure and chemical composition, further improving the dimensional stability of molds.
