It is the most widely used of all the precipitation hardening stainless steels, and is more cost effective than many high nickel non-ferrous alloys in someApplications. 17-4PH cannot be used at temperatures above 300℃ and at cryogenic temperatures. It is magnetic. Applications: Aerospace industry, biomedical hand tools, chemical and food processing equipment, nuclear waste processing and storage, general metalworking, and paper mill equipment.
