| Alumold 1-500 Forged is a high quality, high strength aluminum alloy intended for the plastic forming industry and for other tooling applications. With its high strength and surface hardness it is suitable for polishing and texturing and is weldable. It is supplied in the forged, heat treated, quenched, cold compressed and aged condition. Alumold 1-500 Forged possesses better than normal mechanical properties in all sizes, excellent thermal conductivity and very good machinability together with good stability. Applications: - Blow Molding
- Injection Molding
- RIM-Molding
- Vacuum Forming
- Foam Molding
- Holders and Support Plates
- Jig and Fixtures
- Die Sets
- Machine Frames
Technical Properties- High Thermal Conductivity - Reduction in cycle time, maintenance of consistent processing temperature and better plastic part dimensional control
- Good Corrosion Resistance - Against most plastic materials
- Machinability - Reduction of machine time lowers tooling costs and improves delivery time
- Surface treatment - Can be anodized, hard chromed and nickel plated to increase wear and corrosion resistance
