The general properties of 17-4 PH stainless steel
The general properties of 17-4 PH stainless steel include:
- Maintenance of strength and hardness characteristics in temperatures as high as 572 degrees Fahrenheit (300 degrees Celsius)
- Yield strength of up to 1,100 to 1,300 MPa (160 to 190 ksi) with treatment
- Corrosion resistance equivalence of Alloys 304 and 430
While 17-4 PH stainless steel resists corrosion more effectively than any other standard type of hardenable stainless steel, it should not be used in applications involving exposure to very low extremes of temperature. 17-4 PH stainless steel is most commonly used in the following industries:
- Offshore industrial
- Pulp and paper
- Food processing
- Aerospace
- Mechanical
- Nuclear waste disposal
