For a manufacturing company while utilizing of H13 steel, several key requirements are highly needed to ensure the suitability and effectiveness of the material for their specific applications.
Here are they typically sought after:
- High Hardness: H13 steel should have high hardness to ensure longevity and durability of the manufactured components under high stress conditions.
- Excellent Toughness: H13 steel should also show excellent toughness to resist chipping, cracking, and fracture, under the impact or sudden loading.
- Good Thermal Conductivity: Thermal conductivity of H13 steel used under high temperatures, such as die casting or forging ensure heat dissipation, reducing the risk of thermal fatigue and extending tool life.
- High Temperature Resistance: H13 steel has high resistance to thermal fatigue and thermal softening at required temperatures, maintaining its mechanical properties and dimensional stability even exposure to heat.
- Wear Resistance: The material should exhibit superior wear resistance to withstand friction and abrasion, while sliding or rubbing contact with other surfaces. This property is essential for extending the service life of tools and dies made from H13 steel.
- Dimensional Stability: H13 steel should maintain dimensional stability during heat treatment and machining processes to achieve the accuracy of manufactured components.
- Machinability: Good machinability is desirable for H13 steel to process the fabrication of complex shapes and features with ease and precision , reduces machining time and costs while ensuring high-quality finished products.
- Corrosion Resistance: Adequate corrosion resistance is still desirable while exposure to moisture, chemicals etc .
- Consistency in Quality: Manufacturing companies require H13 steel with consistent and reliable quality, free from defects or impurities to maintain the integrity of the final products.
- Availability and Cost: Accessibility to H13 steel in various forms (e.g., bars, plates) and sizes, along with reasonable cost, is essential for manufacturing companies to ensure economical production processes without compromising quality.
By ensuring that H13 steel meets these requirements for manufacturing companies to enhance productivity, reduce downtime, and produce high-quality components across a wide range of applications, including die casting, forging, extrusion, and injection molding.
