17-4 PH Stainless Steel Casting Properties
17-4 PH stainless steel is an alloy composed primarily of iron, chromium (15–17.5%), and nickel (3–5%), with additional elements such as copper and molybdenum to enhance mechanical properties. Its precipitation-hardening capability allows for tailoring strength and hardness through heat treatments.
17-4 Investment Casting Advantages
17-4 PH stainless steel castings are designed to create intricate, high-quality custom metal parts that last longer than other casting techniques. Some of the benefits of utilizing 17-4 investment castings for your project include:
- Dimensional Precision – Creates highly accurate and complex parts with tight tolerances while reducing the need for extensive post-cast machining.
- Superior Mechanical Properties – Offers exceptional strength, durability, and wear resistance. Heat-treatable for mechanical property enhancement.
- Increased Corrosion Resistance – Stainless steel construction is resistant to saltwater, chemicals, and other corrosive substances.
- Design Flexibility – Allows for intricate shapes, undercuts, or thin walls that cannot be achieved through traditional manufacturing methods.
- Cost Efficient – Investment castings reduce waste and post-processing time, saving time and money on high-volume production runs.
