NOS430 Die Steel for Hot Forging Toolings, Super Purity Die Steel

Features

NOS430, originates from SUPER technology and is a type of hot work tool steel with high purity, homogeneous annealing structure, excellent thermal conductivity and temper softening resistance.

NOS430 is applied for middle-large sized hot stamping, brass hot forging, die casting core insert and brass extrusion, which are working under high temperature.

NOS430 is strictly inspected as per standard NADCA#229-2011, and other properties also can be tested as customers’ requirement.

Take the advanced melting process for smelting and refining to get the super purified and homogeneous steels.

Take the advanced 3D forging technology to thinning the structure; eliminate the internal defect like shrinkage cavity and porosity; break the big-sized carburization and reduce the band segregation. It is helpful to reduce the discrepancy in the different directions of the steel.

Take the advanced Super-fining heat treatment technology to get the small grain size and homogeneous structure.

Take the strict inspection for each piece of steel products according to the most advanced standard. Ensure our customers use the steels with excellent and stable quality.

Heat Treatment

Soft Annealing

Heating steels upto 820℃ in protective atmosphere; after soaking, then have cooling in the furnace at the rate of 10℃/hr; after temperature comes down to 650℃, finally have air cooling.

Stress relieving

Stress Relieving should be done on the die after rough machining, heating upto 650℃, heat preservation for 2 hours; Slow cooling down to 500℃, further air cooling.

Hardening

Refer to Hardening Diagram,

Preheating in two steps as per A: 600℃ and B: 850℃.

Austenization as per C: 1020-1050℃

Direct cooling as per D, or Sectionalized cooling as per E:500-550℃

Hardening Diagram Tempering Diagram

Tempering

Refer to Tempering Diagram. Choose the proper tempering temperature for required hardness.

For die casting mould, temper at least 3 times.

For hot forging die and extrusion die, temper at least 2 times.

After tempering, it must need cooling down to room temperature.

Holding time for tempering is 2 hours min..

Tips: To avoid the temper brittleness, don’t temper in 500-550℃.

Hardness: HRC Residual Austenite %

Tempering Temperature (2h+2h) ℃

Tips

1. Holding time means the duration of die steel from total heating to Austenitization.

2. During hardening process, steel must be heated to avoid oxidation or decarburization.

3. Steels need to be tempered immediately when temperature gets down to be 50-70℃.

4. To get excellent property for the die, the quenching speed should be as fast as possible,

but should avoid the case of being out of shape or cracks.

If you need more details, please refer to “Heat Treatment Manual” or consult us.

Product Application

Industry	Features	Steel Grade Recommendation
Die Casting	Die Casting is a kind of metal casting technique. It is characterized by using the mould cavity to have high pressure on molten metal. It has the good performance in anti heat cracking, anti corrosion, anti-crack, red hardness.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, NOS430, NOS560
Hot Extrusion	Before extrusion, heat the metal over temperature of recrystallization. It has the good strength at high temperature, high ductility and good toughness, high thermal fatigue resistance and thermal wear resistance, as well as the anisotropic properties of consistency.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, NOS430
Hot Forging	Hot forging is a kind of processing under the condition of over the temperature of recrystalization. It has the good thermal wear resistance, heat intensity, high ductility and good toughness, high thermal conductivity.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, NOS430, NOS560
Hot Stamping	Hot Stamping is the rapid molding in the mould blank and hardening heat. It has the good thermal conductivity, hot bending strength, high toughness and ductility.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, NOS430, NOS560
Injection Molding	Injection molding is a kind of forming process of injection and molding at the same time. It has the high polishability, good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, anti-cracking and thermal conductivity.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, GY336
Compression Molding	Compressing Molding is a process of solidifying the thermosetting plastics through heating and pressing. It is usually used for plastic molding with reinforced glass fiber. It has the good wear resistance, strength, hardness and corrosion resistance.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, GY336
Blow Molding	Blow Molding is a process blowing the raw materials in the closed mould to be the hollow products by gas pressure. It has the medium strength and wear resistance, good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, GY336
Extrusion Molding	Extrusion Molding is a kind of process making the heat plasticized materials to be a specific profile though extrusion. It has the medium strength, but high demand on corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Nitridation is generally used for the mould of fiber reinforced products.	NOS411, NOS415, NOS425, GY336
