PH13-8 Mo H1000 - Precipitation-Hardened Stainless Steel
PH13-8 Mo H1000 is a martensitic stainless steel with the designation of UNS S13800. It has been subjected to a heat treatment known as H1000. It has good strength and is also tough and has good resistance to corrosion.
PH13-8 Mo H1000 is made through a method known as vacuum induction melting. It is refined through electro slag remelting. It has good composition control with low carbon content and is very clean. It has good mechanical properties in sections of varying thickness.
Heat Treatable to H1000
PH 13-8 Mo Precipitation Hardening Alloy is produced in the annealed condition. This is also called the solution heat treated condition, or Condition A. Solution treat from 1675 to 1725°F (910 to 940°C) for 15 to 30 minutes at temperature. Air cool or oil quench to below 60°F (15°C) to effect complete transformation to martensite. Aging is normally carried out from 950 to 1150°F (510 to 620°C), depending upon the desired final properties. Heat treatment is usually performed in air. Heat treatment of brazed components may be done in inert atmospheres. Reducing atmospheres should not be used because of the potential for hydrogen contamination
Applications of PH13-8 Mo H1000
PH13-8 Mo H1000 is commonly used in:
- Landing Gear Components : struts, actuators, and load-bearing parts
- Nuclear Reactor Components : where high strength and corrosion resistance are critical
- Petrochemical Industry : valves, shafts, and high-stress components
- Injection Molding Equipment : tooling requiring hardness and wear resistance
