Product Feature
1. Composition:
17-4 stainless steel is a precipitation-hardening alloy consisting of approximately 17% chromium, 4% nickel, 4% copper, and a small amount of other elements such as manganese and niobium. This composition contributes to its unique properties.
2. Strength and Corrosion Resistance:
One of the primary advantages of 17-4 stainless steel is its exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. It offers high tensile and yield strength, making it suitable for demanding applications where durability is crucial. Moreover, it exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion, including general atmospheric, chemical, and pitting corrosion.
● Tensile Strength: 17-4 stainless steel exhibits high tensile strength, typically ranging from 1100 MPa (160 ksi) to 1300 MPa (190 ksi) in the precipitation-hardened condition. This strength makes it suitable for applications requiring resistance to heavy loads and mechanical stress.
● Yield Strength: The yield strength of 17-4 stainless steel is typically around 1000 MPa (145 ksi) to 1200 MPa (175 ksi) in the hardened condition. It represents the point at which the material begins to deform plastically under applied stress.
● Hardness: 17-4 stainless steel can achieve varying hardness levels depending on the heat treatment applied. In the hardened condition, it typically exhibits a hardness of approximately 30 to 45 HRC (Rockwell C scale), offering excellent wear resistance and surface durability.
3. Heat Treatable:
17-4 stainless steel is heat treatable, allowing for the adjustment of its mechanical properties. Through precipitation hardening, it can achieve a wide range of hardness levels, from relatively soft to high strength.
