Lucchini 2367 ESR is a special high alloyed Chromium- Molybdenum-Vanadium Hot Work Tool steel designed for the manufacture of dies, moulds, punches and other tools subjected to high working temperatures that need very highly resistant to thermal fatigue and high temperature wear. If subjected to suitable hardening, followed by at least two suitable tempers, LUCCHINI 2367 ESR can reach a hardness of 52 HRc without strongly affecting the toughness. In order to improve further the mechanical characteristics of the surface, LUCCHINI 2367 ESR can be coated with PVD or PA/ CVD methods. Alternatively it can be subjected to nitriding; this allows a hardness value of of the nitrided layer up to about 900-1000 HV. Thanks to its quasi-isotropic properties of ESR quality, LUCCHINI 2367 ESR represents also one of the most important tough options, for highly resistant plastic moulds that need very high pressure strength, excellent
resistance to abrasion, also in combination with different surface coatings, and improved toughness in the meantime.
