718 die steel, what do you know?

Die steel, as an important raw material in the manufacturing industry, is widely used in the manufacture of various molds. Among the many die steel varieties, 718 die steel has attracted much attention with its excellent performance and wide range of application fields. So, how much do you know about 718 die steel?

718 die steel, also known as AISI P20+Ni, is a pre-hardened plastic die steel. It combines high strength, high hardness, high wear resistance and good toughness, making it has an irreplaceable position in the field of mold manufacturing. Whether it is an injection mold, blow mold or extrusion mold, 718 die steel provides outstanding performance.

First of all, let's talk about the advantages of 718 die steel. It has high hardness and wear resistance, can effectively resist the wear of plastics, rubber and other materials, and extend the service life of the mold. At the same time, its toughness is also very good, can withstand large impact while maintaining good stability. In addition, 718 die steel also has excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance, which can maintain good performance in harsh environments such as high temperature and humidity.

Of course, any material has its limitations. 718 die steel is no exception. Its main disadvantage is that it is difficult to process, and special processing methods and tools are required. In addition, in some specific applications, the performance of 718 die steel may not meet the requirements, and other die steel varieties with higher performance need to be selected.

After understanding the basic properties and advantages and disadvantages of 718 die steel, we will talk about its application field. Due to its excellent comprehensive performance, 718 die steel is widely used in the mold manufacturing of automotive, electronics, home appliances, toys and other industries. Whether it is a large complex injection mold or a small precision blow mold, 718 die steel provides reliable support.

In short, 718 die steel as an excellent die steel variety, with its excellent performance and a wide range of application fields, has become a leader in the mold manufacturing industry. Understanding the performance characteristics and application fields of 718 die steel is of great significance for selecting suitable die materials and improving die quality and service life.
