Vanax Steel

Vanax Steel

Steel name: Vanax
Diagram No.: 2179
Chemical composition in weight %: 0.36% C, 0.30% Si, 0.30% Mn, 18.20% Cr, 1.10% Mo, 1.55% Ni, 3.50% V
Steel group: Plastic mould tool steels
Properties: No data
Applications: Plastic mould components requiring high corrosion resistance, fretting resistance, and/or mould release properties. Hand knives. Components and knives in food processing. Wear parts in corrosive environments. Wear parts in sliding and rolling engineering applications. Highly stressed machine parts in corrosive environments.
Reference: Not shown in this demo version.

Heat Treatment
Hardening: The recommended austenitizing temperature for Uddeholm Vanax SuperClean is 1080°C (1975°F) with 30 minutes holding time followed by deep cooling between -100º (148°F) and -196°C (-320°F) to minimize the amount of retained austenite.
Tempering: For best corrosion properties low temperature tempering at 200°C (390°F)/2 x 2h is recommended. If the product application conditions require a higher tempering temperature Uddeholm Vanax SuperClean can be tempered up to 450°C (840°F) without significant loss of corrosion properties.
