DC53

DC53 is a Japanese standard high-grade cold work die steel, which belongs to the Cr8Mo2SiV type of steel and is known for its excellent hardness, wear resistance and compressive strength. DC53 is widely used in manufacturing cold work dies, such as stamping dies, drawing dies, thread rolling dies, cold extrusion dies, etc.
Suitable for manufacturing molds and tools with high precision and high wear resistance. It is also suitable for manufacturing some wear-resistant parts in plastic molds.

HEAT TREATMENT

Annealing: The purpose of annealing DC53 mold steel is to eliminate structural defects, improve the structure, homogenize the composition, refine the grains, improve the mechanical properties of the steel, reduce residual stress; at the same time reduce the hardness, improve plasticity and toughness, and improve cutting performance. Annealing belongs to the heat treatment of semi-finished products, also known as pre-heat treatment.



Quenching: The quenching temperature range of DC53 is 980-1010°C. It is quickly cooled after being kept warm for a period of time to obtain a martensite structure and improve the hardness and wear resistance of the material.



Tempering: The quenched DC53 mold steel is tempered. The tempering temperature is usually 150-200°C. The purpose is to adjust the hardness and toughness to achieve the best balance and improve the overall performance of the material.



FORGING

For special applications, DC53 can also be forged into many shapes. The temperature for forging is between 900° C (1,650° F) and 1,100° C (2,010° F). Annealing after forging in highly recommended to minimize stress in the part and assuring.

The Management and Staff at Union Steel, have a firm belief that by identifying the customers’ needs, we can achieve the best results for all. Union Steel warmly welcomes friends around the world to cooperate with us.
