TOOLOX® Steel

THE PRE-TREATED STEEL WITH INFINITE POSSIBILITIES

A masterpiece.
The most versatile steel.

Toolox® is a special steel with ESR properties, developed for high performance machining. Very high tenacity and resistance to fatigue. The steel which will optimise your production processes and reduce your manufacturing costs. Never has a steel created such excitement. Toolox steels are ideal for:

Progressive die for automotive components.

Properties which make Toolox® steel the best choice

Its guaranteed properties are key for a reliable production. Toolox® always fulfils the expectations of mechanical resistance, chemical composition, hardness, dimensional tolerances, etc.

Tenacity

When the hardness requirement is between 42 and 55HRC, Toolox® 44 allows additional thermal treatment to be avoided (necessary for other steels), thanks to its exceptional and guaranteed tenacity.

Elimination of costs of thermal treatment, correction of deformations, logistics and manufacturing time.

Fatigue resistant

Excellent resistance to the appearance of internal fissures. Pieces subjected to great forces maintain their properties, prolonging their lifespan.

Easy machining

The best choice for high performance machining. The ESR properties make Toolox® the optimal solution for machining thanks to the stability of its chemical composition.

Excellent Surface Finish

The purity of the chemical composition facilitates any subsequent treatment: bluing, chrome plating, nitriding, etc.
Mirror polishing guaranteed for sheet thicknesses of 6 to 130mm, and on rounds with diameters of ø 16 to ø 192mm.

Work at high
Temperatures

Allows work to be carried out at sustained temperatures of up to 590ºC.

Vibration
absorption

Great capacity for absorbing vibrations
and not transferring them to the tools.

Saves time

Toolox® greatly reduces the roughing times of machining, because it allows hot cutting (unlike the majority of special steels).

Welding and Cutting

Toolox® steel can be welded in all grades and dimensions.

Maximum durability

Toolox® is extremely resistant to wear.

Technical and mechanical characteristics of Toolox® steels

Toolox® 33 es un acero pre-tratado perfecto para componentes de herramientas e ingeniería. Conserva una estabilidad dimensional buena tras el mecanizado.

Toolox® 33 se entrega en estado templado y revenido, presenta una gran resistencia y tensiones residuales muy bajas por lo que tiene una estabilidad dimensional muy buena tras el mecanizado.
Si utiliza los métodos adecuados, podrá aumentar considerablemente la vida útil de sus herramientas y componentes.

Aplicaciones:
Toolox® 33 es perfecto para moldes, matrices, componentes de herramientas e ingeniería, equipamientos de reciclaje y mucho más…

Ensayos:
Impacto según EN 10025, EN ISO 148 con un percutor de 2mm.
Dureza conforme a EN ISO 6506-1, en superficie fresada de entre 0,5 y 2 mm por debajo de la superficie de la chapa.

El acero pre-tratado para matrices de corte en frío, extrusión de aluminio y componentes de ingeniería.

A pesar de su gran dureza, Toolox® 44 combina una elevada tenacidad con una gran estabilidad dimensional durante el mecanizado.
Su dureza nominal 450 HBW/45 HRC convierte a Toolox® 44 en la opción ideal para aplicaciones complejas de moldes y matrices. La gran pureza del acero proporciona a Toolox® 44 muy buenas propiedades de pulido, brillo A2 y texturizado.

Aplicaciones:
Toolox® 44 permite nitrurar y revestir con PVD en aquellas aplicaciones que requieran más dureza superficial para resistir el desgaste. Se pueden llevar a cabo procesos de ingeniería de superficies, siempre que la temperatura no supere los 590 °C.

Example of transformation

of TOOLOX® steels

Client with axle of F127 (34CrNiMo8) with localised durokrom. Material subject to much abrasion (silica). Maximum operating lifespan 3 months, ending with breakage of the axle + spindles in 100% of cases.

Solution: Toolox® 44 without additional treatment is used (machining and assembly).
Operating lifespan: 9 months and replacement of the axle due to loss of dimensions, 0% breakage.
