CALMAX is a medium alloyed tool steel suitable for short and medium run tooling in applications where a very high chipping resistance is required. The property profile makes CALMAX a robust cold work tool steel for heavy duty blanking and forming.
- Calmax is very useful for severe cold work applications where there are very high demands on chipping resistance
- Reduced maintenance and downtime costs combined with increased productivity due to the reduced likelihood of premature failures.
- Reduced maintenance and downtime costs combined with increased productivity due to simplified maintenance procedures
- Good weldability and the availability of welding electrodes with the same chemical composition as Calmax
- Good flame-, induction- and laser hardenability
