RS344 / RS344ESR

Property:

Steel suitable for air hardening,Its characterized by fairly good dimensional stability during heat treatment. It remains high wear resistance up to temperature of around 600.


This steel also possesses excellent toughness and high level insensitivity to thermal shock and thermal fatigue. A nitriding type surface treatment can be carried out on this steel to increase the service life of the tooling.


Application :

Hot punches and dies for blanking,bending,swaging and forging ,hot extrusion dies for aluminum,cores,ejector pins,inserts and nozzles for aluminum,copper ,tin and lead die casting.
