Plastic mold steel with additional sulfur, usually supplied in a quenched and tempered condition. Polishable, better machinability compared to 1.2311. Similar to AISI P20+S.
1.2312 (40CrMnMoS8-6) steel is a plastic mold steel delivered in its pre-hardened state. It is preferred when better machinability is required, as compared to 1.2311 (40CrMnMo7). 1.2312 (40CrMnMoS8-6) material is suitable for nitriding, induction hardening, and flame hardening. Due to its sulfur content, 1.2312 (40CrMnMoS8-6) plastic mold steel is not suitable for patterning.
For molds requiring uniform hardness throughout the core and products demanding better surface brightness, 1.2738 (40CrMnNiMo8-6-4) should be selected.
