H13 hot work steels for Dies and Moulds
H13 ( DIN 2344 ) hot work steel has found profound resonance in the manufacturing industry that readily relies on it for its dies and moulds requirements. This steel grade has been specifically developed with the prime objective of letting it sustain the demands that are intrinsic to the production of molded products. Virat Special Steels is the leading Merchant, importer and exporter of H13 steels and offers a diversified choice as per the suitability of the client.
Why H13 is the preferred choice?
The physical characteristics of H13 steel are derived from the distinct make and composition of it. The concentration and ratios of different components need to be ensured as required so that the desirable attributes are secured. Failing the same, the molding dies may never deliver as per standards. Apart from maintaining specific composition, other processes are also adhered to like annealing and tempering of the steel. H13 steel is forged at 1079 degree centigrade while the minimum forging threshold prescribed for it is 898 degree centigrade. Annealing is done at 871 degree centigrade and tempering of it is performed in the thermal range of 538 – 649 degree centigrade. These processes ensure that high tensile strength and elasticity is generated through the micro arraying of the components in the most even manner.
In fact micro structure of H13 steel is directly responsible for the characteristics that make it the preferred choice as for making hot injection molding, Forging, Extrusion dies etc. The thermal resistance that it offers as regards temperature variation during the injection of material is much superior as compared to other tools and dies steels in the hot work steel category. Virat Special Steels is a pioneer in the manufacture of H13 steel based products including all kinds of dies and moulds and ensures the optimized value by maintaining strict standards.
High applicative value of H13
With the molding and dies applications growing multifold in the manufacturing economy around the world, H13 has emerged as the top choice. Not only for the hot working but it is also being actively used as cold working steel for tools and moulds. However, it is its capacity to withstand the wear and thermal induced corrosion that 2344 steel has felt wider acceptance in the hot injection molding and tooling applications in manufacturing enterprises. It allows long term use with little maintenance while the finesse and polishing potential that is carries for the finished product is of high standard too. This directly impacts the cost of the final product to be sent in market and ensures economy in production.
Further the ability to offer custom H13 products/moulds can increase productivity for companies that are engaged in making specialized products. www.h13steel.in / Viratsteels.com is a specialty manufacturer of H13 steels and offers highly versatile customized products to Indian and international clients.
