PH Stainless Plate
GRADE 15-5 PH TY 1 Stainless Plate
15-5 PH is a martensitic, precipitation hardening, chromium-nickel-copper stainless steel. The Stainless Steel 15-5 PH alloy combines good strength, transverse toughness and ductility, hardness capability and corrosion resistance compared to 304 stainless. 15-5 PH may be used in the solution treated condition or heat treated to obtain a wide variety of properties. The 15-5 PH stainless was designed to have greater toughness than 17-4 PH. The 15-5 PH alloy is martensitic in structure in the annealed condition and is further strengthened by a relatively low temperature heat treatment which precipitates a copper-containing phase in the alloy. -
GRADE 17-4 PH Stainless Plate
17-4 PH is a chromium-copper precipitation hardening stainless steel that is used for applications requiring high strength and a moderate level of corrosion resistance. It is one of the most widely used precipitation hardening grades, as it has high strength hardness up to about 572˚ while demonstrating good corrosion resistance in all heat treated conditions. 17-4 PH has adequate resistance to atmospheric corrosion or in diluted acid salts where its corrosion resistance is equivalent to Alloy 304 or 430. Alloy 17-4 can be heat treated to a variety of temperatures to develop a wide range of properties. -
PH Stainless Bar
Grade15-5 PH TY 1 Stainless Bar
15-5 PH is a martensitic, precipitation hardening, chromium-nickel-copper stainless steel. The Stainless Steel 15-5 PH alloy combines good strength, transverse toughness and ductility, hardness capability and corrosion resistance compared to 304 stainless. 15-5 PH may be used in the solution treated condition or heat treated to obtain a wide variety of properties. The 15-5 PH stainless was designed to have greater toughness than 17-4 PH. The 15-5 PH alloy is martensitic in structure in the annealed condition and is further strengthened by a relatively low temperature heat treatment which precipitates a copper-containing phase in the alloy. -
Alloy Plate
4130 Alloy Steel
4130 grade is a low-alloy steel containing chromium and molybdenum as strengthening agents. The steel has good strength and toughness, weldability and machinability. -
4340 & E4340 Alloy Steel
4340 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel known for its toughness and its ability to attain high strengths in the heat-treated condition. It has very good fatigue resistance. -
Alloy Bar
4340 Mod Low Alloy Steel (300M)
300M is a high strength, low alloy steel grade that is produced via a consumable electrode vacuum remelt. This alloy is similar to 4340 with the addition of vanadium and a higher silicon content. It offers a combination of toughness and ductility at high strength levels without increased carbon content. -
Tool Steel Plate
A2 Tool Steel
A2 is an air-hardening tool steel with superior abrasion resistance for long service. Inherent toughness makes it particularly adaptable for use in dies and punches. Excellent nondeforming characteristics. -
A6 Tool Steel
A6 is an air-hardening tool steel which is characterized by it’s ability to be through hardened while using the low austeninzing termperatures that are normally associated with oil-hardened tool steels. A6 offers good toughness and dimensional stability in heat treatment as well as intermediate wear resistance. -
H13 Tool Steel
H13 is a versatile chromium-molybdenum hot work steel that is widely used in hot work and cold work tooling applications. The hot hardness (hot strength) of H13 resists thermal fatigue cracking which occurs as a result of cyclic heating and cooling cycles in hot work tooling applications. Because of its excellent combination of high toughness and resistance to thermal fatigue cracking (also known as heat checking) H13 is used for more hot work tooling applications than any other tool steel. -
O-1 Tool Steel
O-1 is an oil-hardening tool steel which may be hardened from fairly low temperatures with little size change. O-1 combines deep-hardening qualities with a fine-grained structure, affording good initial production runs, and good continued production after grinding. -
S7 Tool Steel
S7 is a shock resisting tool steel with excellent toughness and high strength, along with medium wear resistance. It has maximum shock resistance and high compression strength, which gives it good deformation resistance in use, while retaining good toughness. -
420 Stainless Steel
420 is a martensitic stainless steel that provides increased strength and hardness relative to Type 410 while offering moderate corrosion resistance.
