1.2379 PLUS Steel

1.2379 PLUS Steel

Steel name: 1.2379 PLUS
Diagram No.: 2400
Mat.No. (Wr.Nr.) designation: 1.2379 PLUS
Chemical composition in weight %: 1.55% C, 12.00% Cr, 0.80% Mo, 0.90% V
Steel group: Cold work tool steels
Properties: Ledeburitic 12% chrome steel of powder-metallurgical production, same analysis like 1.2379 (X153CrMoV12), but homogenous micro-structure within whole crosssection; fine distributed carbide-structure, better machineability, polish-ability, grind-ability. Very high resistance against abrasive and adhesive wear due to a high volume of hard carbides in the steel matrix, good toughness, very good dimensional stability, high compressive strength, very good base material for PVD/CVD coating as well as nitriding due to its secondary hardening properties. Analysis similar to AISI D2.
Applications: Cutting, punching, stamping tools, shear blades, thread rolling dies, cold extrusion dies, drawing and bending tools, flanging and straightening rolls, fine cutting tools, deep drawing tools, plastic moulds for abrasive polymers.
Reference: Not shown in this demo version.

Heat Treatment
Hardening: 1000 - 1030°C, oil, pressure gas (N2), air or hot bath 500 - 550°C.
Tempering: See the diagram.
