Hello !
I'm making a fixture for milling aluminium cast parts and have a need for couple guiding / alingment details. I make these from ARNE tool steel and want to harden these for better wear resistance (cast parts sliding on-off from fixture, about 5k to 10k parts minimum.
I want to make fixture parts, harden in oil, temper and then machine the guide surface with carbide endmill.
What HRC is suitable ? 45 ? 50 ?
