|   Assab Steel 8407 SUPREME Hot Work Steel  Subcategory: Tool Steel; Chrome-moly Steel; Hot Work Steel; Metal Close Analogs: Premium AISI H13, W.-Nr. 1.2344 Material Notes: The name "SUPREME" implies that by special processing techniques and close control, the steel attains high purity and a very fine structure. Further, 8407 SUPREME shows significant imrpovements in isotropic properties compared to conventionally produced AISI H 13 grades.8407 SUPREME is characterized by:
 High level of resistance to thermal shock and thermal fatigueGood high temperature strengthExcellent toughness and ductility in all directionsGood machinability and polishabilityExcellent through-hardening propertiesGood dimensional stability during hardening
  These improved isotropic properties are particularly valuable for tooling subjected to high mechanical and thermal fatigue stresses, e.g. die casting dies, forging tools and extrusion tooling. In practical terms, tools may be used at somewhat higher working hardnes (+1 to 2 HRC without loss of toughness. Since increased hardness slows down the formation of heatchecking cracks, improved tool performance can be expected.  8407 SUPREME meets the North American Die Casting Association (NADCA) #207-90 for premium high quality H-13 die steel. Applications: Tools for Diecasting: Dies, fixed inserts cores, sprue parts, nozzles, ejector pins (nitrided), plunger, shot-sleeve (normally nitrided).Tools for Extrusion: Dies, backers, die holders, liners, dummy blocks, stems.
 Tools for pressing Aluminum, magnesium, copper alloys, and steel.
 Molds for plastics:  Injection molds, compression/transfer molds.
