Products Description
In terms of performance, SKD4 exhibits excellent hardness, making it highly resistant to wear and abrasion. This property is crucial for tools that are subjected to continuous friction and contact with other materials. The steel also demonstrates good toughness, enabling it to withstand impact and shock loads without fracturing easily. This combination of hardness and toughness gives SKD4 the ability to endure demanding working conditions.
Furthermore, SKD4 has outstanding heat resistance, allowing it to maintain its mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. This makes it suitable for applications involving high-temperature processes such as hot forging, die casting, and extrusion. The heat resistance of SKD4 helps to prevent softening and deformation of the tool, ensuring its long-term durability and reliability.
SKD4 steel product available : SKD4 Steel plates, SKD4 steel sheets, SKD4 round bars, SKD4 steel strip
SKD4 steel standard : JIS G4404,
SKD4 steel example application: Mainly used for hot-rolled mould , eg: Press die, die-casting die, extrusion tool, shear blade.
SKD4 steel surface usual condition:
-- The hot rolled or forged condition (as hot work)
-- The machined (ground, polished, turned, peeled or milled ) condition
-- The cold reduced condition


Another notable performance aspect of SKD4 is its relatively good machinability. Despite its high hardness, it can be machined using conventional techniques, albeit with proper tooling and machining parameters. This allows for the efficient production of complex tool geometries and reduces manufacturing costs.
Moreover, SKD4 has good dimensional stability during heat treatment and in-service operation. This ensures that the tools maintain their precise dimensions and shape over time, minimizing the risk of dimensional inaccuracies that could affect the performance and quality of the final product.
