What materials are used in pressure die casting?
Looking for quality Tool & Die Steels for your Pressure Die Casting Industry?
At Virat Special Steels, we specialize in supplying high-quality tool and die steels to the pressure die casting industry. Our comprehensive range includes: DIN 1.2344 (H13), DIN 1.2343 (H11), DIN 1.2581 (H21)
Pressure die casting is a metal casting process that is characterized by forcing molten metal under high pressure into a mold cavity. The mold cavity is created using two hardened tool steel dies which have been machined into shape and work similarly to an injection mold during the process.
DIN 1.2344 (H13) is a hot work tool steel that has excellent machinability and polishability, good high toughness and plasticity, high wear resistance at high and low temperatures and overall hardening performance. It is widely used for aluminum, magnesium and zinc die casting, as well as metal extrusion tools, shear knives, and hot forging dies.
DIN 1.2343 (H11) is also a hot work tool steel that has similar properties to DIN 1.2344 (H13), but with less vanadium content, which gives it higher toughness and lower wear resistance. It is suitable for die casting molds for light metal processing, cylinders and pistons on cold chamber machines, and hot forming tools.
DIN 1.2581 (H21) is a tungsten-chrome-vanadium steel for hardening in oil and possibly in air with very good hardenability, very high firmness during the heat and resistance to the tempering, high resistance to the hot tempering and good toughness. It is mainly used for hot-working dies and tooling, such as extrusion, die casting and hot-forming of parts.
Virat Special Steels is one of the largest importer, exporter and stockist of die blocks, tool steels, die steels, special steels and alloy steels in various grades in India.

Little goatman!
Finally made a video where I explain in detail - with a voiceover - how I made this mold to use for papier mache masks! The much longer and narrated version can be found at my patreon, at the $3 tier: https://www.patreon.com/posts/74769546
I have shared these videos before with my patrons but I've always been getting lots of questions about the molding process, I hope compiling them and adding narrated explanations clear things up!
I will be making another video soon about putting the mask together and making the horns etc. There is already a face-casting and a papier mache tutorial over there - the video version of that also shows and explains how I painted it.

I have been trying to make a slipcast version of this guy literally my whole life CAN YOU SEE MY TEARS OF JOY?? From 3D modeling to 3D print to plaster and finally to clay…it’s been a lot. Okay I’m done 😂
New mold, who dis? I’ve been working on this mold for over a month now. It’s gonna be awesome if it works. If it doesn’t work, I’m deleting this post and pretending that this experiment never happened. #mold #moldmaking #moldporn ? #wip #art https://www.instagram.com/p/Clq5ZAjLlDy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
