Hot Work Steel

Tools steels for the highest requirements of tools

Due to our experience we continuously improve the toughness properties of our hot work steels. Hot work steels are used to produce tools for die-casting, extrusion of plastics and metal alloys, forging dies, plastics processing and hot forming.

Your benefits

  • Good high temperature wear resistance
  • Good resistance to thermal shock
  • Good annealing stability
  • Good machinability
  • High dimensional stability during heat treatment
  • For ESR grades: mirror polishability
