DIN 1.2738 X40Cr14/1.2083 Forged QT Hot Work Plastic Mould Steel Bar

1: DIN 1.2738 steel introduction
    DIN 1.2738 is specially used for Plastic injection die moulds. The characteristics of a material are right sharpening, photo-etching properties with high purity and good homogeneity. DIN 1.2738 is upgraded version of plastic mold steel 0f 1.2311, which normally supply in Pre hardened condition. Hardness in as supplied condition 280-320 HB with having uniform hardness. The additional nickel content of 1 % increases through hardening. It has good machinability, suitable for Texturing, fine polishability, adequate corrosion resistance, vacuum-degassed steel.

3: DIN 1.2738 steel chemical composition
4: DIN 1.2738 steel mechanical properties
    The mechanical properties mainly include tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, area or reduction, hardness, impact value, non-metalic inclusion etc. Different heat treatment, the mechanical properties will be different, such as normalized, tempered, QT. If you want to know the properties, kindly contact the salesman.

6.HEAT TREATMENT:

    Already pre-toughened; usually no heat treatment required

Soft annealing: 
    710 to 740 °C for about 2 to 5 hours; slow controlled cooling of 10 to 20 °C per hour to about 600 °C further cooling in air, max. 220 HB

Hardening: 
    840 to 870 °C 
    15 to 30 minutes keeping curing temperature 
    quenching in oil/hot bath/air 180 bis 220 °C 
    obtainable hardness: 53 HRC

Tempering: 
    slow heating to tempering temperature immediately after hardening; minimum time in furnace: 1 hour per 20 mm part thickness; tempering twice is recommended.

7: Delivery condition
    For hot forged or hot rolled bar, usually the delivery condition is hot forged or rolled, annealed, rough turned.
    For hot forged plate, usually the delivery condition is hot forged, annealed, milled surface.
    For hot rolled plate, usually the delivery condition is hot rolled, annealed, black surface
