Type of steel and characteristics:
•EXCELLENT HIGH TEMPERATURE WEAR RESISTANCE
• VERY HIGH HEAT RESISTANCE
• HIGH WORKING HARDNESS
•GOOD MACHINABILITY
• SUITABLE FOR HOT WORK AND COLD WORK APPLICATIONS
MateRiaL pRopeRties cr7V-| is a special high cr-alloyed steel with Mo and V additives and is characterized by excellent high tempera-ture wear resistance with very high temperature strength and good thermal fatigue resistance. The steel is ideal for use in hot and cold work applications.
Applications:
Typical applications include:
For hot work:
M Drop forge die and die inserts for forging presses in steel processino, especially with serious wear problems M hot forming tools (press hardening) of structural automobile parts M extrusion die for steel processing M hot pressing die for the processing of copper and copper alloys M hot sharing blades and flash trimmers M push bench rollers for the production of seamless steel piping M production tools for seamless steel cylinders (e.g. drawing rollers)
For cold work:
M rollers,e.g. Former rolls used for steel rim processing
M punches and shearing blades for sheet thicknesses of approx. 6-12 mm
