15-5PH STAINLESS STEEL
What is 15-5PH STAINLESS STEEL?
15-5PH (UNS S15500) is a precipitation hardening martensitic stainless steel designed for improved toughness and weldability compared to its predecessor, 17-4PH. It delivers high strength, good corrosion resistance, and excellent mechanical properties across a wide range of industries.
Commonly used in aerospace, nuclear, marine, and chemical processing, 15-5PH is valued for its uniformity, low distortion after heat treatment, and superior performance in precision-machined components.
Key Properties
and Advantages
1. High Strength & Toughness
15-5PH offers exceptional strength and hardness, especially in the H900 and H1025 heat-treated conditions. It maintains toughness even in thicker cross-sections.
2. Improved Fabricability
Compared to 17-4PH, 15-5PH has better transverse toughness and weldability, making it ideal for components requiring complex machining or joining.
3. Corrosion Resistance
15-5PH offers comparable corrosion resistance to 17-4PH and performs well in mildly corrosive environments, including industrial, marine, and food processing conditions.
4. Stability Through Heat Treatment
With minimal distortion and dimensional change during aging treatments, it is an excellent choice for precision components requiring tight tolerances.
