Looking For DIN 2344 Hot Work Steels?

DIN 2344 Steel | 2344 Tool Steel |1.2344 Hot Work Steel

Our DIN 2344 matches the Japanese JIS G4404 standard exactly (and its corresponding SKD 61 steel) and is roughly equivalent to the AISI H13 Tool Steel (conforming to ASTM A681 standard); the British BH13 (BS4659BH13 standard); and the French AFNOR NFA 35-590 Z40CDV5.

Our DIN 2344 Steels are low Carbon Steels with Carbon content of between 0.37% and 0.42% and Chromium content between 4.8 to 5.5%, Molybdenum content between 1.2 to 1.5%. They may contain Silicon upto 0.3% and just a trace of Sulphur. But the Vanadium content is quite high at around 1% which gives it great resistance to abrasion regardless of temperature (from low end to high end).

Other such desirable properties include:

• Highly tough and ductile (suitable for wires and ropes)
• Resistant to thermal fatigue and hot cracking
• Retains strength at high temperatures
• Allows through-hardening
• Resists distortion when hardened
• High machinability
