Product Overview
SS 17-4 PH nuts are high-strength, precipitation-hardening stainless steel fasteners manufactured from UNS S17400 bar stock in accordance with ASTM A564/A693. The alloys unique combination of chromium (15-17.5%), nickel (3-5%), and copper (3-5%) enables heat treatment to achieve tensile strengths exceeding 1000 MPa, while maintaining excellent corrosion resistance in aggressive environments.
SS 17-4 PH nuts are widely specified for critical bolted joints in aerospace, chemical processing, and marine applications where both high mechanical strength and resistance to stress corrosion cracking are required. They are available in all standard nut forms, including hex, heavy hex, and lock nuts, and are supplied in various heat treatment conditions (H900, H1025, H1150) to suit application requirements.
