Applications & Uses Of 17-4 PH Stainless Steel Bars


Why To Use 17-4 PH Stainless Steel Bars?

As we all know, stainless steel is one of the most used metal all around the world.

To manufacture a small size of a pin to the big size of aircraft or ship stainless steel is one of the essential metal used in manufacturing these things.

The only reason to use stainless steel is that it provides all the major benefits to manufacture aircraft, ships or even small size of a pin.

From the recent report, we get some shocking numbers of stainless steel. In 2018 93.69 billion US dollar used to purchase stainless steel worldwide.

Yes, you read that right!!

Also, Stainless steel is recyclable material, so manufacturing industries reuse stainless steel in the manufacturing process.

Do you want to learn more about stainless steel?

If yes let’s start

In today’s topic, we are discussing one of the most useful grades of stainless steel – 17 – 4 ph

17-4 ph stainless steel bars:

17-4 ph is martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel, which is widely used ss grade for different industrial application because it has a valuable combination of excellent strength & hardness with unmatchable corrosion resistance ability among all ss grades with different heat treatment temperature make 17-4 ph an outstanding choice among the other different grades. 17-4 ph a unique combination of properties makes this alloy an effective solution to many design and production problems.

At Vishwa Stainless Pvt. Ltd. 17-4 ss bar are available in different shape.

●    17-4 ph stainless steel round bars
●    17-4 ph stainless steel hex bars &
●    17-4 ph stainless steel square bars

17-4 ph Stainless Steel properties:

Physical Properties:

●    Melting Range: 2560-2625°F (1404-1440°C)
●    Density: 0.2820 lb/in³

Mechanical Properties:

Type 17-4PH stainless steel has excellent mechanical properties. For applications requiring high strength and hardness as well as corrosion resistance, Type 17-4PH stainless is an outstanding choice, and it is more cost-effective than many high nickel non-ferrous alloys.

Resistance to Corrosion:

Type 17-4 PH stainless steel has excellent resistance. It withstands corrosive attacks better than any of the standard hardenable stainless steels and is comparable to Type 304 in most media. This has been tested in a wide variety of corrosive conditions in the petrochemical, petroleum, paper, dairy, and food processing industries, and applications such as boat shafting.


Application:

Aerospace industries:

17-4 ph provides excellent stress corrosion resistance ability and high tensile strength. these benefits are very important because airplane parts & components or other aerospace equipment has to work in a different environment or temperature so having good corrosion resistance ability and high strength is very important.

Paper & pulp industry:

Paper & pulp industry need a stainless steel grade with good corrosion resistance ability and durable to work in the toughest condition. So, stainless steel grade 17-4 ph is a good choice for the paper & pulp industry.
Paper & pulp industry has to work with water & chemicals so these industries need good corrosion resistance ability in stainless steel grade.

Food processing plant:

17-4 is the first choice for any food processing industry to manufacture equipment because 17-4 ph stainless steel grade has good corrosion resistance ability and excellent toughness so it’s a perfect choice for any food processing industry.

Features:

  •  Excellent resistance to corrosion
  •  Provide toughness in both base metals and welds.
  •  Well suited to applications that require ease of fabrication and then the addition of strength/hardness for improved reliability

Complete Detaied Guide For 303 Austenitic Stainless Steel Bars

Alloy 303 is a non-magnetic, austenitic stainless steel that is not hardenable by heat treatment. It is the free machining modification of the basic 18% chromium / 8% nickel stainless steel. Alloy 303 was specially designed to exhibit improved machinability while maintaining good mechanical and corrosion-resistant properties Due to the presence of sulfur in the steel composition, Alloy 303 is the most readily machineable austenitic stainless steel; however, the sulfur addition does lower Alloy 303’s corrosion resistance to below that of Alloy 304. Like other austenitic grades, Alloy 303 demonstrates excellent toughness, although the sulfur does reduce this a little as well. Ni - 9.00, Cr-18.00, Fe-Balance, Si -1.00, Mn-2.00, C - 0.120,  P-0.040, S - 0.030 Key Properties These properties are specified for the long product (bar) in ASTM A582. Similar but not necessarily identical properties are specified for other products such as wire and forgings in the...

Stainless Steel Applications And Performance in Marine Industry

  Marine industries have a highly demanding environment that requires materials that can withstand the corrosive effects of saltwater and other harsh conditions.  A material that can provide the best resistance and performance under the ocean surface. Wondering what it is? It’s Stainless steel!  Even after a few numbers of materials labels themselves as the best materials for marine applications, Stainless Steel has always overshadowed them with its quality performance.  The reason why Stainless steel is the best choice for marine applications is it doesn’t corrode and weaken in the presence of water or oxidation over time. Stainless has an exceptional ability to survive the salinity of seawater along with harsh sunlight.  Keep reading to learn more about why stainless steel is widely used for marine applications, what type of stainless steel grade to choose from, and a lot more. Why Use Stainless Steel In Marine Applications? Before jumping on Stainless Steel u...
