| 455 and 465 Stainless Steel |
Custom 455This alloy is a martensitic stainless that combines corrosion resistance similar to 304, easy fabrication and one step age hardenability yielding strength characteristics similar to martensitic stainless'. It possesses a yield strength that is roughly 3 times the strength of standard 304 stainless. This alloy is extremely stable during heat treating so it can be machined to close tolerance prior to aging. Custom 465Alloy 465 is a premium melted martensitic, age hardenable material which is less sensitive to process parameters than other high strength, precipitation hardening stainless steels. The material is capable of 260 ksi UTS in the H900 condition. The alloy was designed to ave excellent notch tensile strength and fracture toughness in this condition. |
