Hot forging tooling engineered for performance above 1000°C.
MC-X is an in-development ultra-fine grain molybdenum alloy strengthened with intermetallic particles that remain stable above 1,100°C. Where carbides coarsen and break down past 550°C, MC-X’s precipitate strengthened microstructure will not change.
The result is a material that performs and stays dimensionally accurate at temperatures conventional tool steels cannot survive.
