Today I will share the differences between Skd11 and SKD61.
1 Skd11 is a high carbon and high chromium cold work die steel, and Skd 61 is a medium carbon and high alloy hot work die steel.
2 The usage scenarios of the two are different. Skd 11 is suitable for the production of some punches for hardware molds, and Skd61 is mainly used for The core materials of die-casting molds,
3 have different hardnesses after heat treatment. The hardness of Skd11 is around 58 degrees - 60 degrees, and the hardness of skd 61 is between 48 degrees - 52 degrees.
4 The wear resistance and toughness are different. At the same hardness, The wear resistance of Skd11 is better than that of skd 61
