Welding-Tool-Steel is generally required for the following purposes:
- Assembly of a composite tool made of simpler elements
- Modification of a tool to suit different requirements or to repair miss machining (fixing mistakes)
- Rebuilding of a worn out surface or edge
- Repair of a broken, cracked or damaged tool
- Improvement of properties on a specific location of a tool built of a simple steel.
- Great savings can be achieved by applying ARCWEL Filler metals for tool and die repair or protection
Die Casting Machine , Molds
Die Casting Molds mainly made from hot working tool steel are subject
to wear due to high temperature ,corrosion, erosion and pressure.
Worn and damaged surfaces of such molds can be successfully restored
and rebuilt by GTAW (TIG) welding using the Filler rod
ARCWEL 550 -GTAW
For deep Crack repairs and joining of tool steels the following products
are recommended
SMAW (Stick) -ARCWEL 280-SMAW
GTAW (TIG) -ARCWEL 280-GTAW
