1) Remark: X38CrMo16 is an oil-hardening tool steel. It achieves at least 46 HRC in hardened condition. The steel is rust-resistant and suitable for burnishing. Application: forms for plastics industry, especially for processing of thermo plastic masses it they seperate chemically aggressive substances (e.g. PVC-processing). In such cases is a polished surface necessary.
