Products Description
SKD6/H11/T20811/1.2343/4Cr5MoSiV Hot working die steel is mainly used for processes such as punching, stretching, bending, cold extrusion, cold heading, wire rolling, and bending of metal or non-metallic materials. Therefore, it is required that the W.1.2343 mold has high strength, high wear resistance, and sufficient toughness to ensure its service life. W. 1.2343 type steel is widely used as a universal cold working mold in mass production.

1.2343 Mold Steel Characteristics:
- High heat resistance hot work mold steel
- Excellent toughness and ductility in all directions
- High thermal fatigue resistance and wear resistance
- Nitridation can be applied
- Good polishing performance
- Good dimensional stability
- Better isotropic properties than conventional melted steel

1.2343 Steel Applications
- Die casting mold (core, insert, core, splitter cone, nitriding thimble)
- Extrusion mold (mold core, mold pad, flow block)
- Hot pressing forming molds for aluminum, copper, magnesium, etc
- Cold punching load, hot shearing, tightening ring and wear-resistant components
