1.Application

    H13 steel is the most popular and most versatile, hot work steel

    H13 steel combines good red hardness and abrasion resistance to heat checking due to its higher Vanadium.

    H13 steel offer high level of toughness and good machinability and polishability.

    Typical use for dies,punches,hot chisels,pressure pads and tools. Especially popular for extrusion press tooling because of its ability to withstand drastic cooling     from high operating temperatures.
