Die steel is used to manufacture cold punching dies, hot forging dies, die-casting dies and other molds of steel, is the main processing tool for manufacturing parts in industrial sectors such as machinery manufacturing, radio instrumentation, electrical machinery, electrical appliances. As a variety of mold applications are very different, complex working conditions, so the specific mold steel performance, such as strength, wear resistance, thermal conductivity, processability requirements are different. Mold steel according to the use of general can be divided into cold work mold steel, hot work mold steel and plastic mold steel three categories, used for forging, stamping, cutting type, die-casting, etc..
