VR400 offers high hard tool steel offering a thickness of around 1300 mm. The thickness helps to make blocks of different sizes with exceptional performance and hardening homogeneity. Additionally, it stands out perfectly in plastic injection moulds, big size moulds, and compression moulds. The properties allow it to be used in texturing and the automotive industry. The improved performance and overall design offer several benefits:

Increase polishability
Good toughness
Enhances weldability
Thermal conductivity gets much better
Makes an exceptional choice for texturing
