ASSAB Polmax
General
The rapid development in the high-tech area is putting higher and higher demands on the tool steel. Surface finishes, which have not been possible to achieve with ordinary tool steels, are required. For these extreme requirements Uddeholm Polmax is the right choice.
New processes have been developed to meet the increased demands on surface finish. For Uddeholm Polmax methods like ESR (Electro Slag Remelting) and VAR (Vacuum Arc Remelting) are used in order to reduce inclusion levels to minimum amounts.
Polmax possesses the follwing properties:
