Typical Applications
- Die casting dies & inserts (Al / Zn / Mg)
- Hot forging dies, blocks and inserts
- Hot extrusion dies & tooling
- Hot shear blades and trimming tools
- Core pins, sleeves and ejector components
- High-temperature tooling requiring thermal fatigue resistance
Key Properties
- Excellent hot strength and toughness for high-temperature service
- Good thermal fatigue resistance (heat-check resistance)
- High resistance to cracking, chipping and softening at elevated temperatures
- Good hardenability and stable performance after heat treatment
- Available in annealed condition and selected pre-hardened grades (e.g., H13-S / FDAC)
