Precipitation Hardening(PH) Stainless SteelsPrecipitation hardening stainless steels are materials that maintain corrosion resistance as stainless steel while its strength can be increased by precipitation hardening (age hardening) . In particular, SUS631 is a soft metastable austenite phase in the annealed (solution heat-treated) state. As a result, it can withstand complex machining as well as austenitic stainless steel, and its strength can be increased by precipitation hardening (heat treatment) after machining. TOKKIN supplies three types of steel: SUS631 (17-7PH), SUS632J1 (15-7PH), and TOKKIN 350, and can propose steel grades according to customer applications and processing methods. |
