17/7-PH Stainless Steel Condition A

Type 17/7-PH was designed primarily for manufacture into parts requiring corrosion resistance and high strength up to 600° F.

17/7-PH Condition A (Annealed 17/7 Cr-Ni 1 % AL) Precipitation Hardenable Stainless Steel Strip. This alloy provides design and production advantages possessed by none of the standard stainless grades. Easily formed in its Condition A, it can be hardened to high strength levels by subsequent heat treatment. It work hardens rapidly and with forming behavior similar to Type 301. Type 17/7-PH was designed primarily for manufacture into parts requiring corrosion resistance and high strength up to 600° F and where such parts may require welding during fabrication. Condition A has a tensile strength of 150,000 PSI maximum, a yield strength of 55,000 PSI maximum and elongation in 2 inches at 20% minimum. This Condition A conforms to SAE aeronautical material specification AMS 5528.
