17-4PH is a precipitation hardening stainless chromium-nickel alloy steel with martensitic structure. It has high corrosion resistance and high strength properties. Operates in a temperature range of -59°C to 343°C while maintaining relatively good parameters. In addition, 17-4PH material has better ductility because it is a precipitation hardening steel and should be applied after supersaturation and aging. In delivery condition +A, the product has no martensitic structure, resulting in a significant reduction in corrosion resistance. Steel can be welded by TIG, but the welding process requires the use of annealed material. Otherwise the material at the joint will not maintain the proper structure. Additionally, at the expense of a slight loss of corrosion resistance, the product can be nitrided to obtain a hardened finish. 17-4PH and 1.4542 / X5CrNiCuNb16-4 are available in bar and cold rolled strip in the form of round bars, sheets, flats, etc. The material is widely used in the aerospace, marine, paper, energy, marine and food industries for the manufacture of heavy machine components, bushings, turbine blades, couplings, screws, drive shafts, nuts, measuring devices.17-4ph has good resistance to stress corrosion cracking at higher aging temperatures. acc. to GJB 2294-95, GB/T 8732-2014, AMS 5604, AMS 5343, AMS 5622, AMS 5344, AMS 5643, AMS 5355, AMS 5825, MIL C-24111, MIL P-47183, MIL S-81591

Heat Treatment
17-4PH stainless steel is immersed at 1038°C (1900°F) for 30 minutes, then cooled to below 16°C (60°F) to fully transform martensite in Condition A. Condition A material was treated at 482°C (900°F) for 1 hour, then cooled. Solution-treated materials were soaked for 4 hours under H925, H1025, H1075, H1100, and H1150 conditions at specified temperatures, and then air-cooled. Solution treated material was immersed at 760°C (1400°F) for 2 hours under H1150M conditions and then cooled. Heat again at 620°C (1150°F) for 4 hours, then cool.
