    Core properties of plastic tool steel

    High strength and resistance to deformation

    Specially designed for plastic mold high-alloy formula (such as adding Cr, Ni, Mo), to ensure that the material in the high-pressure injection environment to resist plastic deformation, avoid mold surface sag, corner collapse and other problems, extend the service life.

    Excellent processing adaptability

    Pre-hardening treatment (such as HRC 30-40) ensures that the material maintains high accuracy in cutting and EDM, supports rapid prototyping of complex cavity molds, and shortens the production cycle.

    High mirror polishing properties

    The special smelting process (vacuum degassing + electroslag remelting) ensures the purity of the material, and can reach Ra≤0.05μm after polishing, which meets the optical surface requirements of high-end plastic products such as automobile lamp shades and transparent packaging.
