Tool Steel Casting Alloys
Carbon and alloy steels, which are commonly used for investment casting tools, make up tool steels. These alloys lack corrosion resistance but are renowned for their great hardness, wear resistance, and abrasion resistance. The various alloy groups that make up tool steels each offer varying degrees of strength, surface hardness, toughness, working temperature, and shock resistance.
Precision Tool Steel Investment Casting
Tool steel is one of many alloys that Siddhalaxmi Engg pours for precision investment casting. Tight tolerances, complex coring, and a flawless surface polish are all possible with investment casting. Rapid prototyping enables it to produce small runs and is perfect for complex ideas.
For maximum effectiveness and productivity, our foundry uses separate air melting lines for ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. Additionally, we offer secondary and support services and help you choose the right alloy for your tool steel investment casting project.
A-Grade Tool Steel Alloys
tool steel with higher chromium concentration that air hardens and is all-purpose brings about good machinability, hardness, and wear resistance. We supply the following investment casting tool steels of A grade:
A-2
D-Grade Tool Steel Casting Alloys
a tool steel that air hardens and has a high carbon and chromium content for abrasion resistance. These tool steel alloys are perfect for investment casting cutting tools and dies because they maintain their hardness at high temperatures. We provide the following D-grade tool steel grades:
D-2, D-7
H-Grade Tool Steel Casting Alloys
Low-carbon tool steel having a chromium basis that may be heated. provide strength, resistance to abrasion, and the capacity to tolerate high pressure applications. For precise investment casting, we provide the aforementioned H-grade tool steels:
H-13
S-Grade Tool Steel Casting Alloys
possess little carbon and can withstand shock at both low and high temperatures. Although S-grade tool steels do not offer as much abrasion resistance as other grades, they do have a high level of impact resistance.
S-1, S-7
Selecting a Tool Steel for Your Investment Casting Project
Understanding the application is the main factor to take into account when choosing an alloy for your investment casting project. For tools and dies, which must survive heavy amounts of cutting, coining, moulding, pressing, and extruding, material selection is very crucial. When selecting a tool steel alloy for precision investment casting, factors to take into account include:
- Shock resistance
- Hardness
- Corrosion resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- Working temperature
- Weldability
