Plastic Mould Steel 1.2080 is a high-carbon, high-chromium steel known for its excellent wear resistance, hardness, and high abrasion resistance, making it suitable for demanding plastic injection molding applications. With a carbon content of around 2.0%, it offers superior hardness, typically ranging from 58-62 HRC, which ensures that it maintains sharp edges and a fine surface finish throughout long production runs. This steel grade is often used in the manufacturing of molds that require high precision and durability, such as those used for producing hard, abrasive plastics. 1.2080 steel is particularly valued for its ability to withstand wear and mechanical stress without losing its dimensional stability, making it ideal for high-performance molding tools. Its high chromium content provides additional corrosion resistance, ensuring that the molds perform reliably in aggressive molding environments. Plastic Mould Steel 1.2080 is commonly used in the automotive, packaging, and consumer goods industries, where longevity and precision are essential for producing high-quality plastic components.
