AMS 5678 specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of wire from 0.007 to 0.625 inch (0.18 to 15.88 mm) in nominal diameter, cold drawn to Condition C and capable of being precipitation heat treated to Condition CH900. 17-7PH is a semi-austenitic precipitation-hardening stainless steel that provides high strength and hardness, excellent fatigue properties, good corrosion resistance, good formability, and minimum distortion upon heat treatment. As a trusted supplier of high-performance alloys, ZYTC Alloy stocks 17-7PH stainless steel bars, sheets, pipes, and wires, combining medium corrosion resistance with excellent mechanical properties for demanding applications.
