Abstract: Uniform hardenability is achieved in plastic injection mold and die block tooling of 20 inches and larger by the use of 0.05-0.20 vanadium in conjunction with low carbon steel in which ingots are hot worked to form mold and die blocks having cross sections of 20 inches and larger followed by water quenching and tempering.

Abstract: A blemish free surface is formed on the cavity side of a set of mold or die blocks, said set consisting of a core side and a cavity side, by use of a softer alloy on the core side as contrasted to the cavity side so that, during plastic injection molding, the core side will wear at the parting line in preference to the cavity side whereby erosion of the set occurs on the core side in preference to the cavity side leaving the cavity side erosion free.
