ToolSteel 1.2709 / MS1
- Alternative Designations: 1.2709 (DIN/BS) | X3NiCoMoTi18-9-5 (ISO)
Description:
ToolSteel 1.2709 is an ultra-high-strength maraging steel ideal for demanding molding applications. Its exceptional properties are achieved through the formation of intermetallic phases and precipitates during heat treatment, offering excellent fatigue strength, hardness, and machinability. The material’s properties can be adjusted with different heat treatments. Typical applications include plastic injection molding, extrusion tools, hot pressing tools, and die casting tools for aluminum and zinc alloys.

Bead blasting
Depowdering of parts with bead blasting. The final parts are slightly grainy in the touch with a satin-like matte appearance.
Notes:Semi-sintered surface particles remain on the part even after initial depowdering.
