Product Overview

What are SS 17-4 PH Bolts?

SS 17-4 PH bolts are high-strength precipitation-hardening stainless steel fasteners manufactured from UNS S17400 bar stock, conforming to ASTM A564/A693. The alloy’s unique combination of chromium (15-17.5%), nickel (3-5%), and copper (3-5%) enables martensitic transformation and precipitation hardening, delivering tensile strengths up to 1310 MPa in the H900 condition.

These bolts offer excellent corrosion resistance, superior mechanical properties, and outstanding toughness in both base metal and welds. SS 17-4 PH bolts are widely specified for critical bolted joints in aerospace, chemical processing, power generation, and marine applications where high strength and moderate corrosion resistance are required.

Material Chemistry

SS 17-4 PH Chemical Composition

SS 17-4 PH Bolts are manufactured from an iron-chromium-nickel alloy with chromium (16–26%), nickel (8–28%), and grade-specific molybdenum additions per ASTM and ASTM A193/A194. Chromium content governs the self-healing passive oxide film; molybdenum (2–6%) enhances chloride pitting resistance; and carbon content determines sensitization risk in welded assemblies.

Why SS 17-4 PH Alloy Composition Matters for Bolts

Precipitation Hardening — High Strength
The addition of copper and niobium (columbium) enables precipitation hardening, allowing SS 17-4 PH bolts to achieve tensile strengths up to 1310 MPa after heat treatment, far exceeding standard austenitic stainless steels.
Chromium — Corrosion Resistance
A chromium content of 15–17.5% provides good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, fresh water, and many chemicals, making these bolts suitable for marine and process environments.
Nickel — Toughness & Ductility
Nickel enhances toughness and ductility, ensuring SS 17-4 PH bolts maintain high strength and impact resistance even at low temperatures and after repeated thermal cycling.

SS 17-4 PH hex bolts are available to DIN 931 (metric partial thread), DIN 933 (metric full thread), ISO 4014/4017, and ASME B18.2.1 (inch hex and heavy hex). Stud bolts are supplied per ASME B16.5 for flange applications. Custom thread forms (BSW, BSF, Whitworth, BSPP) are available on request with 15 working day lead time.
Molybdenum-based anti-seize compound (such as Molykote 1000 or Loctite LB 8012) is recommended for SS 17-4 PH bolts. Apply to threads and nut bearing face to prevent galling. Reduce torque values by 20% for lubricated assembly. Avoid copper-based anti-seize to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Yes – SS 17-4 PH bolts offer good resistance to atmospheric and fresh water corrosion, making them suitable for marine and offshore structural applications. However, for prolonged immersion in seawater or highly aggressive chloride environments, duplex or super duplex stainless bolts may be preferred.
