P20/ 1.2311/ 3Cr2Mo Plastic Mold Steel Prehardening QT Round Bar
P20 mould steel is a common alloy tool steel which usually supplied
in QT condition. The 1.2311 steel can give an excellent polished
finish. DIN 40CrMnMo7 tool steel is one of the most widely used
material for machine cut plastic moulds. This grade also provides
excellent wear resistance.
