Daido DRM1

Daido DRM1 is a highly tough matrix hot work tool steel. This material outperforms the well-known hot work steels by combining excellent resistance to thermal cracking, high toughness, and high hardness. Its good tempering resistance ensures high wear hardness even after numerous cycles. A fine microstructure results in better toughness than what is typically observed in conventional high-speed steels.

DRM1 is ideal for dies, metal die-casting molds, and hot cutting tools.

DRM1 is a branded product of the Japanese manufacturer Daido Steel. Gebr. Recknagel distributes DRM1 as the exclusive supplier for Central Europe.
