42CrMo Plate

Today, a customer from HeiLongJiang province(Chinese domestic province)want to buy 42CrMo plate. They got our information on Internet. He bought it from a company in **Jin city before, and he said that the materials he bought were fake.Recently, I remembered many customers told me, especially customers from other provinces, that many people buy 42CrMo plate which was fake.

Today, the customer was very careful about us at the beginning and asked me a lot of questions, such as the origin of 42CrMo plate, the original material book and the price of 42CrMo plate.I explained everything to him.Finally, the customer also asked me to send our company information, I did it,and I said you can go online to check the company including my personal information, we will not cheat you for thousands of dollars, and wandering the world.I have a wife and children, a house in DongGuan city, my warehouse and so many goods.This client told us that he was very cautious. He said that he had been cheated before, so he said that the engineer was very angry now. This time, he said that if he screwed up 42CrMo plate again, his job would be lost and the company would fire her.

She finally asked us to shoot the video against the plate and show her the plate mark.See that the plate number 42CrMo should be displayed .I said: it’s ok to film as your demand, but do you think it’s really work& safe for you with a film like this, Is it really safe for you just by a shooting ?and make sure it’s true material 42CrMo plate? I asked that at that time;she said:then what should I do? I told her,to buy materials, first, you have to choose the right company.the second is to have a testing equipment company, testing to prove that everything is true of this material.Dongguan OTAI special steel co., LTD. Has advanced testing equipment, portable spectrometer.We can directly test it on the plate and show it to you of chemical component. You can take photos of video, which means that you have arrived at the scene. We know It is too far for you come visit us,you are located in the North of China.Of course, doing business involves knowing the man you will work with is reliable or not.Not only depend on for speaking of how good of my material, but depend on the detection and company.It’s been 20 years since my company was founded.If my company had been unreliable for so long, how could my company still working well. my circle of friends is all open, my WeChat picture is myself.

1.2311 Price

1.2311 Price

I was shocked today by the 1.2311 prices.

I heard that our competitor knew we had been abroad to visit customers.so they adjust the 1.2311 prices.

And most of the customers have a demand of 1.2311 plates,It’s understood that most people are concern about 1.2311 prices,cause the 1.2311 quality is similar in the Chinese market. Now, they start a war of 1.2311 price, our company had lost 500 tons order, just because the crazy 1.2311 price, even though our regular customers prefer to buy from them this time, I understand it exactly, nobody doesn’t like high profit.

However, thinking about it? Is it really high profit for your company? Cause once they start the price war,not only a company can get 1.2311 prices in such low, but all of their competitor.

So I made a decision,I also asked my other regular customers to buy from them today, I can not make my regular customers lack the 1.2311 prices competitive,cause if others 1.2311 prices lower than my regular customers, they might also lose some market, now, they all buy from my competitor, the 1.2311 prices in this country will be same.I think this is the best way to stop price war,once price war start, no one will win,someone might said:the customers win,but I don’t think so.

A(company) offers a cost price to C(customers), A(company) fail, cause there no profit at all,the worse is lost,maybe.

B(company) lost orders,cause most C purchase from A, B(company) fail.

C(customers) seems get advantage,in fact,the result  just lower the 1.2311 market price.cause everyone buy in same price.and the worse is they may involve in a new price war for their market.

A story about 42CrMo4 special steel

This afternoon, a steel-selling colleague brought a customer from Dubai; specifically to our company to see the 42CrMo4 special steel sheet; this company is specialized in helping equipment maintenance of Dubai  Automobile Factory; all their equipment is from Japan. This customer used to buy the 42CrMo4 sheet in the local, unfortunately,find the materials can not meet the requirements, so the customer took the steel to the inspection company, but was found to be false.

This time, this customer was afraid of being deceived. She flew to Dongguan (a city of Guangdong province) to see the 42CrMo4 material. At that time, the customers went to our warehouse and were very shocked. They saw that there are so many 42CrMo plates in our warehouse, and there is two Kind of delivery status. One is the American standard 4140 pre-hard, and the other is the national standard 42CrMo. But this customer asked how can I prove that this material is true, we immediately took out our company’s testing equipment spectrometer and immediately showed it to him. Because this customer has never seen a handheld spectrometer before. He said that your company still has such advanced testing equipment. He was very recognized for the quality of our company.

Finally, we talked a lot about the chaos in the market. He said that when he sold special steel, he stepped on the pit without paying attention. The boss couldn’t find the materials he wanted, so he bought the materials from one of the suppliers on the Internet. As a result, many materials were fake. They spent a lot of money and were fined by customers because of delaying production. He said that sometimes he felt particularly helpless. When he left, he said that this special drive to Dongguan and was too worthy. He said he will find us when he buys special steel next time.

M2 tool steel

A few days ago, the customer  M2 steel has been completed. This is a very high requirement for the tolerance of M2  steel. Once customers have also looked for different counterparts to do this M2, but because many M2 tool sheets of steel do not offer accurate tolerances. because the M2 tool steel is special high-speed steel, and M2 tool steel contains high-value alloying elements such as tungsten, molybdenum, chromium and vanadium, M2 The tool steel is more expensive than other special steels. From the production of the M2  steel to the post-processing, it must be cautious and slightly wrong. The whole batch of goods must be scrapped.

The factory was scrapped a lot because of the tolerance processing, resulting in several tons of M2 steel scrap, the cost is very expensive. Due to the very high tolerance requirements of the M2  steel, we package the M2 steel in wooden boxes for each customer in better and more comprehensive use of raw materials. Each wooden box is equipped with 2 tons of M2  steel.

the composition of M2 tool steel

Also, M2 steel also be named as wind steel or front steel, it means hardening even when cooled in the air during quenching, and it is very sharp. It is a complex alloy steel containing tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, vanadium, cobalt and other carbide forming elements. The total amount of alloying elements is about 10 to 25%. It maintains high hardness under high heat cutting (about 500 ° C) and HRC can be above 60. This is the main characteristic of high-speed steel *** – red hardness.

However, after quenching and low-temperature tempering, carbon tool steel has high hardness at room temperature, but when the temperature is higher than 200 °C, the hardness drops sharply, and the hardness at 500 °C has dropped to a similar degree to the annealing state. The ability to cut metal is completely lost, which limits the use of carbon tool steel for cutting tools. High-speed steel, because of its good red hardness, makes up for the fatal shortcomings of carbon tool steel and can be used to make cutting tools.

M2 steel is a demand by Mexico, Argentina, the United States, Germany mostly, customers are very satisfied with the quality of our company’s M2 tool steel. Singapore, Malaysia, and other trading companies also like to buy M2 steel with us, because our M2 steel delivery is fast, and the cooperation M2 tool steel suppliers are particularly numerous, the price is the most competitive in the industry and will calculate for customers At the lowest cost, we can purchase the most cost-effective M2 steel.

How to choose the M2 tool steel that is most suitable for your company?

First of all, you need to take the main products of your company. The size of the M2 steel is used by your company. Does it have a dimensional tolerance requirement for the M2 steel, and is the M2  steel black or shiny? What is the hardness requirement of M2  steel? M2 steel requires the state to be annealed or tempered? Is there a straightness requirement? Whether there are grain size requirements, whether it is required for microscopic organization, etc., all relevant technical data of steel for M2  steel. We will recommend the M2 steel that suits you best.
