Stainless Steel Grade 15-5 PH

Specification

15-5 PH stainless steel is a martensitic precipitation-hardening stainless steel with approximately 15% Chromium and 5% Nickel. It has high strength, high hardness, and excellent corrosion resistance. Strength can be further increased by a single low temperature heat treatment. Compared to 17-4 PH, it offers better transverse toughness and ductility; better mechanical properties in larger cross-sections, and better forgeability. It is readily weldable. It can be machined in any of the several Thermal Conditions available to this grade.

Application

Aerospace structural components, Valves, Gears and Shafts, Oil and Gas components, Nuclear reactor components, Engine parts, Paper mill equipment, Marine gas turbine compressor sections.
