We supply a high-quality selection of hot working tool steels, perfectly matched to your application. Due to their excellent thermal shock and tempering resistance, hot toughness and high hot wear resistance, our tried and tested steels offer long service lives at operating temperatures above 200 °C.
With BGH DIECAST ONE optimised for aluminium die casting or BGH TOUGH ONE, we also offer you two materials with significantly improved operating properties compared to standard grades.

Properties
BGH GLASS ONE is a premium hot working steel with 15 % chromium and 2 % Ni, which has been specially optimised for the glass processing industry. The steel is high-gloss polishable and has very high hardness combined with good wear and corrosion resistance.
Thanks to the special melting process in combination with precisely coordinated hot forming and heat treatment, standard grades such as X22CrNi17 or X17CrNi16-2 are outperformed in terms of microstructure, purity and homogeneity, eliminating the need to use expensive ESR grades.
Delivery condition
- quenched and double tempered (+QDT)
Application area
Highly stressed tools for glass moulds requiring superior surface quality and resistance against wear and temperature changes.
Suitable for large production batches.
Typical applications
- Moulds for tableware
- Moulds for technical and hard glass
- Moulds for optical glasses
- Moulds for electrical cookers
