What is Precipitation-hardening Stainless Steel
Precipitation-hardening Stainless Steel: it can be strengthened by a relatively low-temperature heat treatment. They can be heat-treated to strengths greater than can the martensitic grades.
There are more than 200 different grades of stainless steel. but there are five families of stainless steel: Austenitic Stainless Steel, Ferritic Stainless Steel, Martensitic Stainless Steel, Duplex Stainless Steel, and Precipitation-hardening Stainless Steel.
Some Typical Precipitation-harderning Stainless Steel
Casting Methods for Precipitation-hardening Stainless Steel
Different casting methods are selected based on part size, weight, tolerance and production volume.
