XW-5 is a tungsten-containing carbon, high chromium alloy steel, its characteristics are:
* Excellent wear resistance
* High compressive strength
* High surface hardness after hardening
* Good hardenability
* Hardened, the good stability
* Good resistance to tempering softening resistance
XW-5 steel because of its excellent wear resistance have been widely received engineering, and its trial in the long mold life, and in the production process and lowest maintenance costs, with good economic benefits.
XW-5 chemical composition:
C 2.05%, Si 0.3% Mn 0.8% Cr 12.5% W 1.3%
XW-5 applications requiring excellent wear resistance of the mold, such as: thin, hard materials cutting and die cut, long-life stamping dies, mold, wear resistance of ceramic and plastic molding.
