Plastic Mould Steel 12738 is a high-quality tool steel designed specifically for the manufacturing of plastic injection molds. It is known for its excellent combination of hardness, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for producing molds that must withstand high pressure and temperature conditions in injection molding processes. With a hardness range typically between 38-42 HH, Plastic Mould Steel 12738 maintains its dimensional stability and surface finish even under the stress of rapid molding cycles. The steel's high resistance to wear and abrasion ensures that the molds retain their shape and surface quality over extended production runs, minimizing the need for frequent maintenance or replacement. Additionally, its superior resistance to corrosion makes it suitable for molding various types of plastics, including those that may be chemically aggressive or moisture-sensitive. Plastic Mould Steel 12738 is commonly used in industries like automotive, electronics, and consumer goods for high-precision molds, offering a long service life and exceptional performance under demanding conditions.
