17-4PH can be easily welded and processed by standard shop fabrication practices.
Hot working of 17-4PH should be performed at 950 -1200°C (1742 — 2192°F). After hot working, full heat treatment is required. This involves annealing and cooling to room temperature or lower. Then the component needs to be precipitation hardened to achieve the required mechanical properties.
Cold forming such as rolling, bending and hydroforming can be performed on 17-4PH, but only in the fully annealed condition. After cold working, stress corrosion resistance is improved by re-ageing at the precipitation hardening temperature.
Precipitation hardening 17-4PH can be readily welded using procedures similar to those used for the 300 series of stainless steels. Welding up to 100mm thick can be carried out without the requirement of pre heating due to its low hardness.
