Uddeholm Impax® Supreme

Generic Family: Steel - Wrought - Tool SteelSupplied by: Uddeholms AB
General
Uddeholm Impax Supreme is a premium-quality vacuum-degassed Cr-Ni-Mo-alloyed steel which is supplied in the hardened and tempered condition, offering the followingbenefits:
  • No hardening risks
  • No hardening costs
  • Time saving, e.g. no waiting for heat treatment
  • Lower tool cost (e.g. no distortion to rectify)
  • Modifications easily carried out
  • Can be subsequently nitrided to increase surface wear resistance or locally flame hardened to reduce surface damage
Uddeholm Impax Supreme is manufactured to consistently high quality standards with a very low sulphur content, giving a steel with the following characteristics:
  • Good polishing and photo-etching properties
  • Good machinability
  • High purity and good homogeneity
  • Uniform hardness
Note: Uddeholm Impax Supreme is 100% ultrasonic tested.

Heavier sections are supplied premachined which offers the following advantages compared with un-machined material:
  • Saving of weight
  • Non-decarburized surface
  • Exact nominal size (plus tolerance)
  • Less machining
  • Absence of scale minimizes machine and tool wear

Applications
  • Injection moulds for thermoplastics
  • Extrusion dies for thermoplastics
  • Blow moulds
  • Forming tools, press-brake dies (possibly flame hardened or nitrided)
  • Aluminium die casting prototype dies
  • Structural components, shafts
