For sophisticated products
in the small dimension range

Edelstahlwerke Buderus GmbH has carried
out developments with a view to adapting
material properties of forgings of the steel
grade  11 to the current state of mould
making and plastics processing techno-
logy, in order to meet all relevant quality
requirements. The result is the material 
11 ISO-BM for dimensions up to 400 mm
thick. For large and extremely large plastic
moulds we recommend the material 78
ISO-BM (page 11) and especially steel 78
mod. TS (HH) (page 12).
This provides quality products with all the
properties required.
The grain reliability of steel 11 ISO-BM
is assured.
ISO-BM stands for: isotropic properties with
excellent machinability.

The ­Economic ­Option

Mould steel with excellent workability and ideal machining properties
for injection moulding and compression moulding dies

The mould steel 1, 40CrMnMoS8-6 is
used where there is no requirement for sur-
face finishing by polishing, etch-graining or
hard chrome plating.
The controlled sulfur content gives mould
steel 1 particularly economic machining
properties.
Only suitable for core parts and ejector sides
of injection moulding and compression
moulding dies with no special surface finish
requirements and subject to low mechanical
stress.

Sizing tool for PVC profiles

2316 ­ISO-B ­mod.

The ­Stainless ­Option

Well suited for processing chemically
aggressive and acid-releasing plastics such as
PVC, amino plastics and halogenated flame
retardant additives. Modified corrosion-
resistant mould steel, polishable, etch-grain-
able and economic to machine.
Applications: Injection moulds, mould
inserts, slit dies, profile dies, extrusion dies,
drop forging tools and coaxial housings for
processing PVC amino plastics and additives;
blow moulds.
The steel Buderus 16 ISO-B mod. is ma-
chined and used in the hardened and tem-
pered state. It has a wear-resistant surface,

is pressure-resistant and tough, and can be
used hardened to about 50 HRC because of
its modified composition.
When processing amino plastics and PVC
alloys, highly aggressive by-products
such as hydrochloric acid (HCl) can occur
at high working temperatures (>160 °C),
causing corrosive attack of the mould

surface. No mould steel is resistant to that.
A production temperature of 160 °C should
therefore not be exceeded.
To avoid inter-crystalline corrosion effects
(surface and pitting corrosion), environ-
mental factors such as the plastic, operating
temperature and corrosiveness of the cooling
water must be taken into account.

The ­“Hard ­Type”

Special mould steel that shows its strengths
under extreme abrasive stress

This high-alloy hot working steel has become
established in recent years for plastic moulds
subject to high stress. In addition to through-
hardenability to 5 HRC, 4 ISO-B mod. is
distinguished by extremely high resistance to
abrasion and very high pressure resistance. It is
therefore suitable for processing thermosetting
plastics and thermoplastics with additives and
composite materials.
Additional surface coatings can be readily
applied by PVD and nitriding. The high
working hardness of the steel gives it very good
polishability.

Characteristic ­profile

High sulfidic and oxidic percentage purity

Quasi isotropic material properties

Very good toughness properties with high
component hardness

Very good pressure resistance and

The ­Brilliant ­Finish

For high quality surface finishes with mould
hardness 55 to 415 HB the nickel alloy
steel 711 ISO-B is recommended. For large
moulds such as tailgates, mudguards, spoilers
etc. with hardness values in excess of 55
HB contour hardening is preferred.

The machinability of 711 ISO-B is lower
compared to 11/78 ISO-BM, 78 ISO-
BM and 78mod. TS (HH) because of its
low sulfur content. It may be necessary to
adjust the cutting conditions, especially with
deep hole drilling.

for large-surface plastic parts

The ­Proven ­Steel

For large dimensions with good through
tempering properties

The plastic mould steel 78 ISO-BM has
been developed from the standard grade
11. It is best suited for mould dimensions
from 400 mm thick.
Adding up to 1. % nickel by alloying signifi-
cantly improves penetration hardening up
to 1,000 mm thickness. Good machinability
combined with polishability and etch-graina-
bility are the defining characteristics of this
standard steel.
