International Mold Steel Porcerax II Sintered, Porous Mold Steel

Description: Porcerax II is a sintered, porous metal with porosity in the range of 20 to 30% by volume. A system of interconnected pores with an average diameter of 7 or 20 micron is dispersed throughout the Porcerax II material. Using Porcerax II in appropriate areas, eliminates gas buildup, reduces injection pressure, lowers cycle times, gloss levels and substantially reduces scrap and reject rates.Unique Characteristics: Sintered, porous mold steel that is 25% air by volume.Interconnected pore structure allows trapped gasses to escape directly through the steel.Pre-hardened to 35-40 HRc for wear resistance.Information provided by International Mold Steel.
