Technical Papers
Technical knowledge for mold steel, tool steel, alloy steel and ferroalloy applications.
The JF Metals Technical Papers section is created to help customers better understand material selection, product applications, steel grades, ferroalloy functions and purchasing considerations. These articles will support engineers, buyers, mold factories, foundries, steel traders and manufacturers when sourcing materials from China.
Main Technical Topics
- Mold steel grade selection and comparison
- Hot work tool steel applications
- Cold work tool steel applications
- Plastic mold steel selection
- Ferroalloy functions in steelmaking and foundry
- Material certificates and quality documents
- Cut-to-size steel purchasing guidance
- Export packing and shipping considerations
Mold Steel Knowledge
Mold steel and tool steel are widely used in plastic injection molds, die casting molds, stamping dies, hot work tools, cold work tools and precision machining. Different grades have different hardness, toughness, wear resistance, heat resistance and polishing performance.
Common mold steel grades include H13, SKD61, D2, SKD11, Cr12MoV, P20, 718, D3 and other customized grades. Selecting the correct steel grade depends on mold type, working temperature, service life requirement, machining method and final application.
Ferroalloy Knowledge
Ferroalloys are important alloying materials used in steelmaking, casting and metallurgical production. They help adjust chemical composition, improve mechanical properties and support production of special steel and alloy steel.
- Ferromolybdenum: improves hardenability, strength and heat resistance.
- Ferrovanadium: improves strength, toughness and grain refinement.
- Ferrochrome: supports stainless steel and alloy steel production.
- Ferrosilicon: widely used as deoxidizer and alloying agent.
- Ferromanganese: used for deoxidation, desulfurization and alloying.
For Buyers
When requesting a technical quotation, buyers are advised to provide material grade, standard, size, quantity, application, required certificate and destination port. This helps us check suitable supply resources and provide more accurate support.
