Bohler-Uddeholm UDDEHOLM VANADIS 10 SUPERCLEAN 3 Powder Metallurgical Cold Work Tool Steel

Chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloyed steelUddeholm Vanadis 10 is a high vanadium alloyed powder metallurgy tool steel offering a unique combination of an excellent abrasive wear resistance in combination with a good chipping resistance. It is manufactured according to the powder metallurgy process giving a very low amount of non-metallic inclusionsVanadis 10 is characterized by: Extremely high abrasive wear resistance High compressive strength Very good through hardening properties Good toughness Very good stability in hardening Good resistance to tempering backApplications: Uddeholm Vanadis 10 is especially suitable for very long run tooling where abrasive wear is the dominating problem. Its very good combination of extremely high wear resistance and good toughness also make Uddeholm Vanadis 10 an interesting alternative in applications where tooling made of such materials as cemented carbide tends to chip or crack.
