2316 Mould Steel Equivalent Stavax

Plastic Mould Steel

Thyssenkrupp 2316

Characteristic 2316

2316 steel are in the class of plastic mold and stainless steel which was developed from 2083 (AISI420)
By adding more composition of Chromium and Molybdinum, it can increase corrosive resistance
Moreover, it also comes with quenching and tempering as normal selling condition
Hardness is in range 300 HB (30 HRC), result in easy to machining without hardening againg
Also, help avoid changing in its dimension from hardening process
Suitable for plastic mold that require corrosive resistance during plastic making such as
PVC, Amino plastic and thermo plastic

Outstanding Properties 2316

• Higher corrosive resistance as compared to 2083 at its class
• Higher strength as compare to 2083
• Wear and corrosive resistance
• strength enough to stand for presssure from injection plastic mold
• Texturing properties in equivalent to 2311
• Machining ability is in moderate level
• Can do EDM well
• Risk free of damange from heat treatment process
• Homogeneity hardness throughout the whole thickness
• Hardening ability in high level
• Hardness after hardening process less than 2083
• Can do Passivation to enhance corrosive reisstance.

Application

2316 is a stainless steel and tool steel in the class of Plastic mold Selling condition is harden and temper
Hardness in range of 1000 N/mm2 suitable for plastic mold Especially corrosive resistance and rusty
condition mold such as Amino Plastic, PVC, Thermo plastic
Thanks to wear and corrosive resistance properties, it can also apply to shaft and other parts of water pump
Also, good to use in machinery part that require strength with corrosive resistance. For example,

• High corrosive Plastic mold
• Plastic extrusion mold
• Machinery part , shaft of water pump and staple part
• Compressor part
• Insert sleeve which made of 2083 to enhance strength and corrosive properties.
