EOS StainlessSteel 17-4 PH is a precipitation hardenable stainless steel having high strength and good corrosion resistance. Precipitation hardening steels are widely used in engineering applications, which require corrosion resistance and strength. Parts built from EOS StainlessSteel 17-4PH can be machined, shot-peened and polished in as-built or heat treated states. Solution annealing and ageing treatment are performed to achieve proper hardness and mechanical properties (ASTM A564 – 13).
