What type of die steel<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0should be used for deep drawing a galvanized steel basin with a thickness of approximately 0.23 mm? Question from a viewer during Live Stream #296.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Stamping a 0.23 galvanized steel basin is a typical application for thin-gauge steel. Since the material is not hard and does not require extremely high wear resistance, die steel with a hardness of 60 HRC or higher is sufficient. The primary consideration is anti-stick performance to prevent scratches on the part\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0Cr12MoV tool\u00a0steel<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0must never be used for iron drawing dies, as it will cause stringing in the product\u2014even a coating will not help. Based on past successful case studies and the principle of using cost-effective materials, I recommend wear-resistant steel 6077.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Wear-resistant steel 6077<\/strong> has a hardness of HRC 60\u201363 and offers three times the resistance to chipping compared to chromium steel. Due to its high-quality smelting process, wear-resistant steel 6077 has a uniform microstructure, making it less prone to sticking or stringing when used in drawing dies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0Mr. Tan, who has used 6077 wear-resistant steel, said that the 6077 wear-resistant steel he bought last time worked quite well. I use it to deep-draw 0.7mm galvanized sheet metal into motor housings with a draw height of 30mm. I\u2019ve already produced 3 million units, and I haven\u2019t received a single complaint from customers. Previously, when I used\u00a0DC53<\/a><\/strong>, the material would start showing wire marks after only a few products, and I\u2019d get scolded by customers. Now that I\u2019m using 6077 wear-resistant steel, although it does develop wire marks after a certain period of use, a quick polish is all it takes to make it reusable. Since this doesn\u2019t happen very often, customers don\u2019t complain. Plus, 6077 wear-resistant steel isn\u2019t expensive. Now that a single die can produce 3 million units, I\u2019m completely satisfied. I run a die manufacturing plant\u2014as long as customers don\u2019t complain, I\u2019m happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 The galvanized steel basin mentioned by this user\u2014which is 0.23 thick\u2014is made from the same material as Mr. Tan\u2019s, but with a thickness of 0.7, it\u2019s even thicker. Stretching it to a height of 30 mm makes the process even more difficult. However, since a single mold made from wear-resistant steel 6077 can produce 3 million products, this case serves as a valuable reference for the user\u2019s specific conditions. Therefore, I also recommend that he use wear-resistant steel 6077.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
