General<br />

VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> is a chromium-molybdenumvanadium<br />

alloyed hot <strong>work</strong> <strong>tool</strong> <strong>steel</strong> which is<br />

characterized by:<br />

• High level of resistance to thermal shock and<br />

thermal fatigue<br />

• Good high-temperature strength<br />

• Excellent toughness and ductility in all<br />

directions<br />

• Uniform and high level of machinability<br />

• Excellent through-hardening properties<br />

• Good dimensional stability during hardening.<br />

IMPROVED TOOLING PERFORMANCE<br />

The name “<strong>SUPREME</strong>” implies that by special<br />

processing techniques and close process control,<br />

the <strong>steel</strong> attains high purity and a very fine structure.<br />

Further, VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> shows significant<br />

improvements in isotropic properties compared to<br />

conventionally produced material of the X38 CrMo<br />

V 51 (W.-Nr. 1.2343) type.<br />

These improved isotropic properties are particularly<br />

valuable for <strong>tool</strong>ing subjected to high mechanical<br />

and thermal stresses, e.g. die casting dies and<br />

forging <strong>tool</strong>s. In practical terms, <strong>tool</strong>s may be used<br />

at somewhat higher <strong>work</strong>ing hardnesses (2 HRC)<br />

without loss of toughness. Since increased service<br />

hardness limits the formation of heat checking<br />

cracks, improved <strong>tool</strong> performance can be expected.<br />

Heat treatment<br />

SOFT ANNEALING<br />

Protect the <strong>steel</strong> and heat through to 850°C<br />

(1562°F). Then cool in furnace at 10°C (20°F) per<br />

hour to 650°C (1202°F), then freely in air.<br />

STRESS RELIEVING<br />

After rough machining the <strong>tool</strong> should be heated<br />

through to 650°C (1202°F), holding time 2 hours.<br />

Cool slowly to 500°C (932°F), then freely in air.<br />

HARDENING<br />

Preheating temperature: 600–850°C (1112–1562°F)<br />

(normally two preheating steps).<br />

Austenitizing temperature: 990–1010°C (1814–<br />

1850°F), normally 990–1000°C (1814–1832°F).<br />

Soaking time: 30–45 minutes. Soaking time = time<br />

at austenitizing temperature after the <strong>tool</strong> is fully<br />

heated through.<br />

Protect the <strong>tool</strong> against decarburization and oxidation<br />

during austenitizing.<br />

Note 1: Temper the <strong>tool</strong> as soon as its temperature<br />

Tempering within the range 425–550°C (797–<br />

impaired toughness.<br />

DIMENSIONAL CHANGES DURING<br />

HARDENING AND TEMPERING<br />

During hardening and tempering the die is exposed<br />

to thermal as well as transformation<br />

stresses. This will inevitably result in dimensional<br />

changes and in the <strong>work</strong> case distortion. It is therefore<br />

recommended to always leave a machining<br />

allowance after machining before the die is hardened<br />

and tempered. Normally the size in the largest<br />

direction will shrink and the size in the smallest<br />

direction might increase but this is also a matter of<br />

the die size, the die design as well as the cooling<br />

rate after hardening.<br />

For VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> it is recommended to leave<br />

a machining allowance of 0,2 per cent of the dimension<br />

in length, width and thickness.<br />

NITRIDING AND NITROCARBURIZING<br />

Nitriding and nitrocarburizing result in a hard surface<br />

layer which is very resistant to wear and erosion.<br />

The nitrided layer is, however, brittle and my<br />

crack or spall when exposed to mechanical or thermal<br />

shock, the risk increasing with layer thickness.<br />

Before nitriding, the <strong>tool</strong> should be hardened<br />

and tempered at a temperature at least 50°C<br />

(120°F) above the nitriding temperature.<br />

Nitriding in ammonia gas at 510°C (950°F) or<br />

plasma nitriding in a 75% hydrogen/25% nitrogen<br />

at 480°C (896°F) both result in a surface hardness<br />

of 1100 HV0,2. In general, plasma nitriding is the<br />

preferred method because of better control over<br />

nitrogen potential; in particular, formation of the<br />

so-called “white layer”, which is not recommended<br />

of hot-<strong>work</strong> service, can readily be avoided. However,<br />

careful gas nitriding can give perfectly acceptable<br />

results.


VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> can also be nitrocarburized in<br />

either gas or salt bath. The surface hardness after<br />

nitrocarburizing is 900–1000 HV0,2.<br />

Nitriding to case depths >0,3 mm (0,012") is not<br />

recommended for hot-<strong>work</strong> applications. VIDAR<br />

<strong>SUPREME</strong> can also be nitrided in the soft annealed<br />

condition. The hardness and depth of case<br />

will, however, be reduced somewhat in this case.<br />

plating<br />

After plating, parts should be tempered at 180°C<br />

(360°F) for 4 hours to avoid the risk of hydrogen<br />

embrittlement.<br />

Photo-etching<br />

VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> is particularly suitable for<br />

texturing by the photo-etching method. Its high<br />

level of homogeneity and low sulphur content<br />

ensures accurate and consistent pattern reproduction.<br />

Polishing<br />

VIDAR <strong>SUPREME</strong> exhibits good polishability in<br />

the hardened and tempered condition. Polishing<br />

after grinding can be effected using aluminium<br />

oxide or diamond paste.<br />

Typical procedure:<br />

1. Rough grinding to 180–320 grain size using a<br />

wheel or stone.<br />

2. Fine grinding with abrasive paper or powder<br />

down to 400–800 grain size.<br />

3. Polish with diamond paste grade 15 (15μm grain<br />

size) using a polishing <strong>tool</strong> of soft wood or fibre.<br />

4. Polish with diamond paste 3 (3μm grain size)<br />

using a polishing <strong>tool</strong> of soft wood or fibre.<br />

5. When demands on surface finish are high,<br />

grade 1 (1μm grain size) diamond paste can be<br />

used for final polishing with a fibre polishing<br />

pad.<br />
