Tool steel alloy for hot work
Hot work tool steel alloy - tool alloy steel used for hot forming tools and for the construction of molds exposed to very high temperatures during operation. It is required that all of them retain their properties up to +600 ° C. This is achieved by using tungsten and molybdenum as alloying additives up to 8-10%, as is the case with WWV steels. The Polish Norma listed a number of hot work steels, including WCMB, WNL, WCL, WCLV, WLV, WLK, WWS1 and WWV. The content of coal in them is in the range of 0.25-0.6%, chromium 1.0-5.5%, molybdenum and tungsten 1.0 to 10.0%, manganese in the range of 1.0%, silicon 0.2 -1.2%, some additions of vanadium, beryllium, cobalt and nickel are also present. Currently, the European Standard is in force, where, for example, X37CrMoV5-1 is the equivalent of the old WCL, and 55NiCrMoV7 is the former WNLV. In practice, in to the symbolic production of domestic steelworks, the designations of German steels are used, so-called Werkstoff. WCL is 1.2343, WCLV is 1.2344, WNL is 1.2713, WNLV is 1.2714.
The most common applications of hot work tool steels are the production of: dies for presses and forging machines, stamps for swelling, mandrels and drawing dies for hot drawing of pipes and rods, rolling mills, knives, hot-plate punches, etc.
