PH13-8Mo Stainless Steel per ASTM A564
ASTM A564 is one of the most popular specifications for hot rolled and cold finished age hardening stainless steel bars and shapes. The spec is set by ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials), and it includes martensitic and precipitation hardening stainless steel materials which are intended to provide high strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The components produced according to this spec are generally applied in fields where high endurance under load and minimum wear are required.
Applications of ASTM A564
ASTM A564 stainless steel bars and shapes are often employed in various industries:
– Aerospace: Fasteners, landing gear, and structural supports
– Industrial machinery: Shafts, rollers, valves, and fittings
– Automotive: High-strength shafts and similar components
– Oil and gas: Exposed to corrosive conditions
– Defense: High-stress structural components with high wear resistance
Material Characteristics
The characteristics of ASTM A564 stainless steel are:
– High tensile and yield strengths after aging
– Good toughness in both annealed and hardened conditions
– Good corrosion resistance compared to other grades of 300 series austenitic stainless steel
– Good wear resistance, which makes them suitable for critical wear applications
– Martensitic and precipitation hardening structure
