Tooling is one of the most challenging steel application. We are the world leader in this area. Among other things, our high quality tool steel is used for the production of high volume and high quality parts in various industries. Depending on the application, high tensile strength, toughness, working hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance are required.
A distinction is made between cold work, hot work and plastic mold steel. Cold work steel is required for the production of stamping, embossing and cutting tools. Hot work steel is used in tools for forging, die casting and extrusion. Molds and matrixes required for the production of plastic products are produced out of plastic mold steel.
Especially with our powder metallurgical and electro slag remelted steels we are pushing the boundaries with regards to the tool life and performance! Each of our market leading brands has a strong value proposition for our customers.
