Abstract
There is provided a precipitation hardening steel with the composition: C: 0.05-0.30 wt %, Ni: 3-9 wt %, Mo: 0.5-1.5 wt %, Al: 1-3 wt %, Cr: 2-14 wt %, V: 0.25-1.5 wt %, Co: 0-0.03 wt %, Mn: 0-0.5 wt %, Si: 0-0.3 wt %, and remaining part up to 100 wt % is Fe and impurity elements, with the additional proviso that the amounts of Al and Ni also fulfil Al=Ni/3±0.5 in wt %. There is the possibility to have very low amounts of cobalt, well below 0.01 wt %. The precipitation hardening steel displays, low segregation, high yield strength at elevated temperatures, high resistance against corrosion, and can also suitably be nitrided. The precipitation hardening steel is more economical to manufacture compared to steel according to the state of the art with the same strength at elevated temperatures.
