Stainless Steel Casting Alloys
A ferrous alloy called stainless steel contains chromium, which acts as a barrier against rust and discoloration. In liquid conditions, it operates effectively, and at high temperatures, it offers heat resistance. There are several varieties of stainless steel, and each one has a unique chemical make-up. Mechanical properties are influenced by composition, which also determines whether heat treatment can be used to further strengthen the material.
High Quality Investment Castings Using Stainless Steel Alloys
For investment casting, we pour a variety of stainless steel alloys, such as the 300 series, 400 series, and precipitation hardening alloys. All AMS, MIL, Federal, and ASTM criteria will be met by the stainless steel grades we offer.
Close tolerances and complicated casting projects for the automotive, aerospace, defence, and other industries are our specialties. We carry out all of our investment casting manufacturing internally. Stainless steel, carbon steel, tool steels, aluminium alloys, and other air melt alloys can be poured using special lines at our foundry for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
We offer secondary and support services, such as heat treatment, CAD modelling, and non-destructive testing, in addition to stainless steel investment casting. To find out more about our precision investment casting services, get in touch with our staff.
300 Series Stainless Steel Casting Alloys
Chromium-nickel alloy 300 series stainless steel is nonmagnetic. Although heat treatment cannot increase the strength of these stainless steel casting alloys, they are renowned for their outstanding resistance to corrosion. Additionally resistant to corrosion brought on by welding and other high-temperature finishing procedures are the alloys 304-L and 316-L. 300 series alloys are often used to investment cast pipelines and housings for industries including medical, maritime, and food and dairy. We offer a variety of casting alloys for 300 series stainless steel, such as:
302, 303, 304, 304-L, 310, 312, 316, 316-L, 319, 330, 347, BS-3146.
400 Series Stainless Steel Casting Alloys
A chromium-magnesium alloy with good strength and machinability is martensitic 400 series stainless steel. This kind of stainless steel is magnetic and may be quenched and tempered to harden it and provide high strength. The 400 series is often used for investment casting valves and machine parts for the automotive and agricultural industries. These alloys are available from us:
410, 416, 418, 420C, 430, 436, 440A, 440C
Precipitation Hardening Stainless Steel Casting Alloys
Alloys that undergo precipitation hardening offer great strength and corrosion resistance. With the help of heat treatment and ageing, they can acquire the martensitic steels’ strengths while retaining their corrosion resistance. They also exhibit magnetic properties. Military, aerospace, and petrochemical applications frequently use precipitation-hardening investment casting alloys. We offer castings made of PH stainless steel utilising the following alloys:
15-5, 17-4, CD4MCu (25-5) (25-5)
