ICO-2800

ICO-2800 is a maraging tool steel with exceptional levels of mechanical resistance and toughness at high hardness of up to 58 - 60 HRc. ICO-2800 provides high resistance to the nucleation of fatigue cracks and also high fracture toughness against shock and twist. ICO-2800 is a good substrate for ceramic coatings like PVD, and especially CVD, and other superficial treatments – for detailed information please contact ROVALMA. ICO-2800 provides outstanding dimensional stability during the precipitation hardening and thereby enables great opportunities to considerably reduce tool manufacturing costs and lead time to production.

Applications:

Tools, dies and molds with high toughness requirements for cutting, drawing, stamping, bending, and injection of diverse materials for working temperature up to 700 °C
Die inserts for injection of thermoplastics under very severe working conditions
Dies and punches for pressing powder - sintered pieces
Hot chamber nozzles for injecting Zamak
Hollow axes for transmitting big torques at high speed and with little weight
Subjection tooling and high severity springs
Temper screws and endless screws, high power axes and gears for high power in reduced spaces or of small mass
For applications requiring highest possible mechanical resistance and toughness at hardness levels up to 58 - 60 HRc

Delivery Condition:

Solubilized - requires precipitation hardening before usage

Typical Working Hardness Range:

58-60 HRc
