DIN 1.2316/X36CrMo17 steel is defined as plastic mould tool steel as per DIN 17350 standard,and it can also be considered a martensitic stainless steel due to its high chromium content of 15-17%.DIN 1.2316 steel is usually supplied in the pre hardened(33-38HRC) condition.
The Main Characteristics of DIN 1.2316/X36CrMo17 steel
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Excellent wear resistance & toughness
- Uniform hardness
- Good thermal fatigue resistance
- Superior polishing performance
- High surface precision
- Low impurity content with high purity
