With cutting-edge forging capabilities and a commitment to strict quality control, the company consistently delivers precision-engineered products that adhere to international standards. The Stainless Steel 17-4PH Forgings from Mourad Metals are celebrated for their remarkable strength, resistance to corrosion, and precise dimensions. Catering to a variety of industrial sectors, the company prioritizes reliability, timely deliveries, and tailored solutions. Mourad Metals blends technical know-how with modern infrastructure to meet the demands of applications where performance, durability, and consistency are non-negotiable.
Stainless Steel 17-4PH Forgings are a type of precipitation-hardened martensitic stainless steel, containing around 15–17% chromium, 3–5% nickel, and 3–5% copper, along with trace amounts of niobium or tantalum. This unique composition results in high strength, impressive corrosion resistance, and outstanding toughness. After heat treatment, the alloy showcases high tensile and yield strength, along with good fatigue resistance. It also maintains stable mechanical properties over a broad temperature range and offers good machinability when in the solution-treated state.
