XW5 steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium alloy steel containing tungsten, suitable for molds that require excellent wear resistance, such as: punching and shearing molds for thin and hard materials, long-life stamping molds, forming molds, ceramics and molding molds for abrasive plastics. Excellent wear resistance
High compressive strength, bending, stretching, drawing, curling, spinning and forming.
Pipe and profile in-forming rollers; cold drawing/finishing dies;
powder metallurgy compaction mold;
Master mold for cold complex mold;
Molds used for molding processing;
Forming molds for ceramics, bricks, ceramic tiles, grinding wheels, flat plates, abrasive plastics, etc.;
Gauges, measuring tools, guide rails, bushings, sleeves, knurling dies. Features: Excellent wear resistance, stable heat treatment performance (%)
Carbon fiber C: 0.25 (%)
Silicon Si: 0.30 (%)
Manganese Mn: 0.80 (%)
Chromium Cr: 12.50 (%)
Tungsten W: 1.3 (%) Soft annealed to 240HB
