KAL 13 ESR
KAL 13 ESR (H-13 ESR/DIN 1.2344/ X40CrMoV5-1) KAL 13 ESR has an excellent combination of high hot strength, wear resistance and toughness. It has an outstanding performance for plastic molding dies, Aluminum hot extrusion dies, Aluminum/Magnesium die-casting dies operated at temperatures above 300°C and for hot forging dies operated at temperatures above 500°C. High level of micro cleanliness, micro structural homogeneity and hot toughness in all directions achieved via ESR remelting imparts KAL 13 ESR an improved resistance to thermal and mechanical shocks, thereby resulting in superior die life performance. Get A Quote General Information KAL 13 ESR is a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium-alloyed steel produced through ESR route which is characterized by: High resistance to thermal shock and thermal fatigue High hot strength Isotropic properties i.e strength, toughness & ductility in all directions Good machinability Hardenability, amenable…
