It is a nickel alloy die steel with excellent toughness and hardenability to the core.
Shipped as Soft Annealed.
It is a medium to large scale hot forging die steel that can be delivered in both the hard (37 – 42 RC) and annealed condition.
It can also be used in hot shear blades, in plastic injection molds where gloss is not important, and in pressing tools.
However, in cases where it is insufficient, 2344 or 2367 should be passed. There is a risk of breakage at working hardnesses above 42 RC
In the production of stainless steel goods, base fastening molds, partial press molds,
Printing punches for extruders, seal carriers supports, sleeve, protective liners,
It is used in hot scissor blades.
