M42 steel, otai  does not act as material handler .

Otai is a stable and reliable supplier for fortune 500 companies at home and abroad, such as thyssenkrupp, china north industries group corporation limited. Otai exports various tool steel and alloy to more than 30 countries from Europe and American, Middle East  and Asia. our steel materials meet DIN/ ASTM/EN/JIS etc different international standards.

Today, let’s talk about the M42 high speed steel, Other Known Names are 1.3247, HS 2-10-1-8, S500, E M42, REX M42®, Dynamax. M42 is a molybdenum series high-speed steel alloy with an additional 8 or 10 percent cobalt, it has superior red hardness and wearing resistance as compared to conventional high-speed steels. This allows for shorter cycle times in production environments due to its higher cutting speeds and from the increase in time between tool changes. M42 steel costs less when compared to those same tools made of carbide.

Recently, one of our client from Italy bought M42 steel 15tons from our company, mainly apply to high cutting tools such as drills, he is satisfied with our product.

Din  1.2738 

Din 1.2738  is one of the plastic mold steel. It is designed for plastic mold industry, for medium-size molds and tools with good machinability. Din 1.2738  is already pre-toughened; usually, no heat treatment required, so it greatly improves the economic benefits.1.2738  belongs to alloy steel, Nickel, chromium, and molybdenium are the alloying elements, it is highly suitable for Polishing, electrical discharge machining, nitriding, chrome, etching. Also, Material 1.2738 can be through nitrogenation and flame hardening treatment in order to increase the hardness and wearability of the mould surface. slow heating to tempering temperature immediately after hardening.

DIN 1.2738 mold steel materials are generally used for relatively low-temperature applications such as casting dies and injection molds, synthetic plastic molds die, especially for large plastic molds highly stressed in the core. large cavity plates with deep cavities for items such as bumpers or dashboards, mold frames. Furthermore, it is suitable for making ps and abs transparent plastic mold such as pencil case and daily container class highly stressed luster.

what is the AISI  8620 steel?

AISI 8620 Steel is a low alloy nickel, chromium, molybdenum case hardening steel, as a common, carburizing alloy steel, it is more responsive to mechanical and heat treatments than carbon steel. This alloy steel is flexible during hardening treatments, thus enabling improvement of case/core properties. Generally speaking, AISI 8620 steel is supplied in the rolled condition with a maximum hardness HB 255max. AISI steel 8620 offers high external strength and good internal strength, making it highly wear-resistant.

Chemical Composition

The following table shows the chemical composition of AISI 8620 alloy steel.

Element Content (%)
Iron, Fe 96.895-98.02
Manganese, Mn 0.700-0.900
Nickel, Ni 0.400-0.700
Chromium, Cr 0.400-0.600
Carbon, C 0.180-0.230
Silicon, Si 0.150-0.350
Molybdenum, Mo 0.150-0.250
Sulfur, S ≤ 0.0400
Phosphorous, P ≤ 0.0350

AISI 8620 Steel is suited for applications that require a combination of toughness and wear resistance. AISI 8620 steel material is used extensively by all industry sectors, for example, manufacturing the engine of the tractor and the small –and medium-sized vehicles.

Typical applications are: Arbors, Bearings, Bushings, Cam Shafts, Differential Pinions, Guide Pins, King Pins, Pistons Pins, Gears, Splined Shafts, Ratchets, Sleeves .because the 8620 steel contains Molybdenum, so it shows good combination properties and heat resistance.

420 stainless steel, safeguard ancient manuscripts

420 stainless steel contains a minimum of 12 percent chromium, sufficient to give 420 corrosion resistance properties. It has good ductility in the annealed condition but is capable of being hardened up to 50 RHC.

Its best corrosion resistance is achieved when 420 is hardened and surface ground or polished. In the hardened condition, 420 has good corrosion resistance to the atmosphere, foods, fresh water, mild alkalies and acids, steam, sterilizing solutions, crude oil, gasoline, and other similar corrosive media. I would like to share a news with you about the application of stainless steels .According to the report, some groups in Egypt is protecting its priceless collection of ancient manuscripts using precision-engineered stainless steel cases.
