Stainless Steel PH 13-8 MO Round Bar and Rods

PH 13-8 Mo stainless steel is a martensitic precipitation/age-hardening stainless steel capable of high strength and hardness along with good levels of resistance to both general corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking. In addition, the alloy exhibits good ductility and toughness in large sections in both the longitudinal and transverse directions. The excellent properties of PH 13-8 Mo stainless are obtained through close control of chemical composition and microstructure plus specialized melting which reduces impurities and minimizes segregation. Compared to other ferrous-based materials, this alloy offers a high level of useful mechanical properties under severe environmental conditions.

13-8 stainless alloy (UNS S13800) is a martensitic precipitation-hardening stainless steel that has excellent strength, high hardness, superior toughness, and good corrosion resistance. Compared to other ferrous-base materials alloy 13-8 Stainless Steel offers a high level of useful mechanical properties under severe environmental conditions. Alloy 13-8 Stainless Steel is used in Aerospace components, landing gear, nuclear reactor components, petrochemical industry, injection molding equipment etc. Alloy 13-8 Stainless Steel in the annealed condition can be strengthened further by relatively low temperature heat treatment.

13-8 Mo stainless has good fabrication characteristics and can be age-hardened by a single low temperature treatment. Cold work prior to aging increases the aging, especially for lower aging tempratures. 13-8 Mo stainless has been used for valve parts, fittings, cold-headed and machined fasteners, shafts, landing gear parts, pins, lock washers, aircraft components, nuclear reactor components and petrochemical applications requiring resistance to stress-corrosion cracking. Generally, this alloy should be considered where high strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, and resistance to stress-corrosion cracking are required in a steel showing minimal directionality in properties.

Machinability of PH 13-8 Mo | 1.4534 |UNS S13800 |ASTM XM-13 | 13-8Mo :

The alloy 13-8 Mo can be machined in the solution-annealed and in the various age-hardened conditions. To obtain optimum machinability, treat solution annealed material at 1400ºF (760ºC) for 2 hours and air cool, then heat to 1150ºF (620ºC) for 4 hours and air cool.

 

Weldability of PH 13-8 Mo | 1.4534 |UNS S13800 |ASTM XM-13 | 13-8Mo :

The Steel 13-8Mo PH may be welded by shielded fusion or resistance methods. If a filler metal is required a 13-8 type should be used. Heat treatment before and after welding will depend upon required strength levels in both the parent and weld metals.
