Heat Treated Steel
Description
Just as mountaineers need the best equipment to conquer the highest peaks, it‘s essential to use the best materials for your tooling to ensure trouble-free production and achieve outstanding tool life.
Three reasons why BÖHLER K390 MICROCLEAN is highly cost effective:
Extremely high wear resistance, excellent toughness and very high compressive strength. The high-performance powder-metallurgy steel BÖHLER K390 MICROCLEAN is a reliable solution for your difficult cutting, die-cutting and cold forming operations, and it has a very good track record for applications in the plastics industry.

Property Features
Benefits for tool & die production in comparison to 10V PM
- Good machinability because of uniform mechanical properties
- Excellent grindability even with deep engraving in the tool & die centre
- Uniform low dimensional change during heat treatment
- Non sensitive against overheating or long soak times
- Optimal EDM characteristic due to uniform carbide distribution
- Low unit cost due to longer service life
- Safety against failure and cutting-edge fractures
