Make components that last a lifetime
With molybdenum and vanadium acting as strengthening agents, H13steel can withstand softening when used at high temperatures. It also combines shock and abrasion resistance, has good red hardness, can resist rapid cooling and can withstand premature heat checking. The H13 tool steel has good machinability, good weldability and good ductility and it can be formed by conventional means. So H13 steel applications is very range in hot forged mold, hot work tool.
