SKD11 cold mold steel applied to which product?

With its mechanical properties, SKD11 is widely applied in the mold industry. So which products does SKD11 cold stamping steel apply to?

Steel is a very common material in industry. During the research, the scientists made a number of changes in the composition of the steel to create steels with different properties to apply appropriately in certain areas. That is why we see many different grades of steel appear on the market today.
As mentioned above, each type of steel will have characteristics suitable for certain areas. SKD11 steel grade is no exception, with its specifications or characteristics, SKD11 steel is widely used in manufacturing. However, many people still ask the question "SKD11 cold stamping steel application for any product?"
1. Introduction of SKD11 steel
Steel grades are manufactured according to JIS standards of Japan. Each country will set standards for the evaluation of SKD11 steel line with its own name for DC11 of DaiDo Japan, SLD of Hitachi Japan, D2 under American AISI standard.

                                      SKD11 cold mold steel applied to which product?

steel has a high carbon content so the tensile strength is very good, able to resist oxidative corrosion, high abrasion, excellent hardening permeability, there is a balance between hardness and ductility. SKD11 steel is a steel with a hardness of 58-60 HRC after heat treatment. With the above characteristics, SKD11 steel enhances performance and extends product life.
2. Typical characteristics of SKD11 steel
SKD11 steel is the most suitable material to make the above products because this type of SKD11 steel fully meets the following advantages:
- Suitable hardness, no deformation when used;
- There is a balance between durability and ductility;
- Withstand large pressures and bumps during the working cycle;
- High abrasion resistance;
- Has good heat resistance.
3. Which product does SKD11 cold stamping steel apply to?
SKD11 steel is often used to produce the main products such as shape knives, packaging knives, corrugated knives, cold stamping molds, unburnt brick molds, etc.
- Shaped knives are knives that have the required shape during machining to fix an object that is not deformed when being cut. An example is when cutting a V bar to the required size for a knife, this set consists of a cutter and a shaped knife. A tool to fix the angle of the V-bar helps to cut easily and without deforming the V-bar.
- Unburnt bricks are pressed through 2 types of machines: static presses and vibrating presses. During the manufacturing process, the mold sets in the machine are subjected to strong, continuous and high vibration forces, which will lead to cracking, broken walls, walls, so when selecting materials to make molds, need to pay attention to the balance. between hardness and ductility of the material.
Used to process metals and alloys by cold deformation method. Materials to create cold dies also require certain strength and ductility, good abrasion resistance to ensure the molds work in the long run.
- Similarly, packaging knives, corrugated knives are also products that need to be made of good steel, with abrasion resistance as well as plasticity and durability.
Along with reasonable prices, SKD11 steel will be the perfect choice for manufacturers without having to consider the cost and quality of raw materials.
