Uddeholm Ramax LH – taking the standard to a new level

Setting standards is important in the tooling industry and Uddeholm is known for delivering first class tooling materials. The new steel grade, Uddeholm Ramax LH, is no exception. It is a top-level tool steel for mould bases, with excellent machinability and a complete dimension program. Uddeholm Ramax LH also offers uniform hardness in all dimensions combined with an excellent indentation resistance.

This new stainless steel grade will give producers of mould bases as well as tool makers around the world the benefit of less tool wear. In addition it prevents corrosion that can clog water cooling channels, leading to a gradual increase in cycle times.

Shorter machining time
Time is always crucial when it comes to maintaining high productivity. By using Uddeholm Ramax LH you will benefit from an optimized alloying content, leading to greatly improved machinability. This means a decrease in production time, therefore reducing lead time and making it easier to meet your customers’ demands.

Part of Uddeholm Stainless Concept
Uddeholm Ramax LH is a part of the renowned Uddeholm Stainless Concept, a group of metallurgically optimized steel grades. These grades have been specially developed and continually improved to meet the demands of today’s fast changing plastic moulding industry.

With the addition of Uddeholm Ramax LH, we can now deliver material for every single component in a mould. Let Uddeholm Ramax LH form the mould base and use other high-quality steel grades to complete your mould.
