Key Features
1. High Strength and Hardness: 17-4 PH can achieve very high strength and hardness through precipitation-hardening treatment, making it suitable for applications requiring high strength.
2. Good Corrosion Resistance: While not as corrosion-resistant as austenitic stainless steels like 304 and 316, it still offers good corrosion resistance in most environments.
3. Good Weldability: It can be welded using various welding processes. Post-weld heat treatment is recommended to achieve optimal properties.
4. Good Machinability: It has good machinability in the solution-treated condition and can further improve mechanical properties after heat treatment.
After appropriate precipitation-hardening heat treatment, 17-4 PH stainless steel can achieve the following typical mechanical properties:
Tensile Strength: 930-1310 MPa (135-190 ksi)
Yield Strength: 725-1100 MPa (105-160 ksi)
Elongation: 10-20%
Reduction of Area: 40-60%
Hardness: HRC 28-38
