BÖHLER M268 VMR

BÖHLER M268 VMR is a hardened and tempered plastic mold steel with excellent cleanliness for best polishability. The hardness is constant over the entire cross-section of the steel block, even at large sizes, due to the addition of nickel.

Characteristics
  • Uniformly high strength and toughness, even at larger sizes
  • High through hardenability
  • Excellent thermal conductivity
  • No heat treatment required
  • Excellent, high polishability
  • Good texturing properties
  • Good electrical discharge machining properties
  • The material does not require heat treatment, reducing the risk of errors
  • The good toughness decreases the risk of cracking during service

BÖHLER M268 VMR

  • Polishability 100%
  • Thermal conductivity 40%
  • Wear resistance 40%
  • Toughness 100%
  • Machinability 80%
