Tool and die manufacturing demands materials with exceptional strength, toughness, and dimensional stability. From forging dies and die-casting molds to plastic injection molds and extrusion tooling, high-quality forged tool steel is essential for extending service life and improving production efficiency.
Eternal (Wanheng) specializes in manufacturing custom open-die forged tool steel blanks for die and mold applications. With more than 20 years of forging experience, we supply forged components that provide superior structural integrity, optimized grain flow, and reliable mechanical performance for demanding industrial environments.
• Cold Work Tool Steels (D2, D3, DC53, etc.) – Suitable for blanking dies, stamping dies, punching tools, forming dies, and wear-resistant tooling requiring excellent hardness and abrasion resistance.
• Hot Work Tool Steels (H11, H13, H21, etc.) – Designed for die-casting dies, hot forging dies, extrusion dies, and other tooling exposed to high temperatures and repeated thermal cycling.
• Plastic Mold Steels (P20, 718, 1.2738, etc.) – Used for injection molds requiring good machinability, polishing performance, and dimensional stability.
• Improved Internal Quality – Forging refines the microstructure, reduces internal segregation, and minimizes defects such as porosity, resulting in higher structural integrity.
• Optimized Grain Flow – Controlled forging deformation produces a more uniform grain structure, improving toughness, fatigue resistance, and crack resistance.
• Near-Net Shape Forging – Forged blanks are produced close to final dimensions, reducing machining allowance, shortening production time, and lowering material waste.
• Superior Mechanical Properties – Enhanced strength, wear resistance, and dimensional stability help extend the service life of dies and molds operating under demanding conditions.
All forgings are manufactured according to customer drawings and inspected under strict quality control procedures. Our production capabilities include forging, heat treatment, rough machining, finish machining, ultrasonic testing, and comprehensive dimensional inspection.
We manufacture forged tool steel components in accordance with international standards including ASTM, DIN, ISO, and customer-specific requirements, ensuring consistent quality and reliable performance.
Whether you require forged blanks for new mold manufacturing, tooling refurbishment, or replacement components, Eternal (Wanheng) delivers customized forging solutions with dependable quality and competitive lead times.
Our experienced engineering team works closely with customers to optimize material selection, forging processes, and machining allowances, helping reduce production costs while maximizing tooling performance.
