Abstract
The invention concerns a steel, particularly a steel for mould tools for plastic moulding, having the following chemical composition in weight-%:0.43-0.60 C from traces to 1.5 Si from traces to 1.5 (Si+Al) 0.1-2.0 Mn 3.0-7.0 Cr 1.5-4.0 (Mo+), however max. 1.0 W 0.30-0.70 V max. 0.1 of each of Nb, Ti and Zr max. 2.0 Co max. 2.0 Ni balance essentially only iron and unavoidable impurities. After hardening and high temperature tempering at 520-560° C., the steel has a hardness of 56-68 HRC.
