Features and Uses of  H11 Hot Work Tool Steel

A 5% chromium hot work die steel with a lower vanadium content than the H13 type tool steel. It is air hardening with excellent non-deforming properties, and is well suited to resist cracking or heat checking when water cooled in service.

Typical applications of H11 include extrusion dies, pressure pads, extrusion liners, blanking and bending tools, forgings punches and dies, hot brass pressing dies, hot heading tools, pressure die casting dies and inserts for aluminium alloys, die-holders, hot shearing and hot cropping blades.

This material is suitable for nitriding after heat treatment.
