Forged steel material "VMCX" [High strength and high toughness steel] *Many achievements in components for press machines, etc.
A forged steel material that enables large-scale, small-scale, long lifespan, and high reliability! What is VMCX, created with technology developed through manufacturing with stringent quality requirements?
The 'VMCX', manufactured using technology cultivated through years of stringent quality requirements in production, is widely adopted as forged steel material for large products that demand high performance and reliability, as well as for medium and small-sized products. Not only does it offer strength and toughness, but its high hardenability and low segregation allow for larger sizes, smaller sizes, longer lifespans, and higher reliability. It is used in a wide range of applications, including mandrels, drilling punches, anvil components, hydrogen accumulators for hydrogen stations, and marine structures. 【Features】 ■ High strength ■ High toughness ■ High hardenability ■ Low segregation ■ Hydrogen resistance *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
