Advanced Die Steel for Die Casting DAC-MAGIC™
Overview
The range of applications of diecast products is expanding for weight saving and recycling while awareness of environmental protection is increasing.
This fact requires bigger diecast products to be produced with higher quality in short cycle.
In order to meet such needs, DAC-MAGIC is one of the best materials for die casting which has not only good heat crack resistance but also good toughness and machinability.

Features
- High strength at elevated temperature and excellent heat crack resistance
- High toughness prevents gross crack of die
- Improved stress corrosion cracking resistance reduces crack problem from cooling channel
- Better machinability than conventional AISI-H13 improved steel(high toughness type) possible to reduce manufacturing time and total cost
Comparison with Current Materials
Position in DAC Series
Heat Crack Resistance
Compared with conventional steels, DAC-MAGIC contributes to longer die life due to
better heat crack resistance.
