Hi!
It is very critical to firstly furnish details of the type of steel used in mould making of rubber moulds. Usually as a convention, mild steels, hot die steels or WPS are used to manufacture rubber moulds. Moulds can be well protected from scratches, rust, etc. by hard chrome plating the working areas. Also as a plus pt. , the electrodeposit of chrome produces a non-galling (non sticking) surface for better extraction of moulded article.
