Description
Introduction:
1.4542 is a corrosion resistant grade which is soft and ductile in the solution annealed condition. Medium to high strength, good toughness and strength is obtained by the appropriate ageing treatment. As a martensitic precipitation hardening stainless it is characterised by high tensile strength and high yield strength obtained by solution annealing, followed by a single or double low temperature age hardening treatment. 1.4542 has corrosive properties comparable to 304 austenitic stainless steel in many environments.
Bars and, where applicable, forgings are subjected to ultrasonic examination based on the different levels according to the buyers' requirements.
100% Ultrasonic test ASTM E2375 /SAE AMS 2154 /SEP 1923 /GB/T 4162 /EN 10228-3.
Bars are usually supplied black/bright in the annealed condition.
Applications:
Commonly used in industries such as offshore, marine, food, paper mills, oil field and aerospace. 1.4542 is used for components such as fasteners, couplings, screws, bushings, studs, fittings, valve stems, roller, wear rings.
Technical Standard: DIN EN 10088-1
