CH16V (1.2379) Steel

CH16V (1.2379) Steel

Steel name: CH16V (1.2379)
Diagram No.: 2508
Mat.No. (Wr.Nr.) designation: 1.2379
DIN designation: X153CrMoV12
Chemical composition in weight %: 1.50% C, 0.25% Si, 0.25% Mn, 11.25% Cr, 0.80% Mo, 0.85% V
Steel group: Cold work tool steels
Properties: CH16V is a high Cr-alloyed ledeburitic steel with Mo and V additives. These additives increase cutting stability, hardenability and the throughhardenability. Dimensional stability is good. The ledeburitic structure ensures high wear resistance. CH16V can be nitrided after special heat treatment.
Applications: High performance cutting and punching tools. Cold extrusion tools. Master hobs. Thread rolling tools. Flanging and straightening rolls. Form rollers for continuous profile and pipe manufacturing from steel strips. Woodworking tools. Cutting tools for the paper and plastics industry. Small plastic molds or inserts for processing plastics with abrasive fillers.
Reference: Not shown in this demo version.

Heat Treatment
Hardening: 1010 - 1050 °C. Vacuum hardening, oil, polymer, air or warm bath of 350 - 450 °C.
Tempering: See the diagram.
