0.05C 17.3Ni-1.8Mo Low Alloy Steel

metal

A low-carbon, nickel-molybdenum maraging steel designed for ultra-high-strength applications requiring excellent toughness and dimensional stability. This material combines very low carbon content (~0.05%) with substantial nickel (17.3%) and molybdenum (1.8%) additions, along with controlled amounts of vanadium and titanium, to achieve an age-hardenable microstructure with minimal distortion during heat treatment. It is widely used in aerospace, defense, and precision engineering where weight reduction, repeatability, and resistance to fatigue and stress-corrosion cracking are critical; maraging steels of this composition represent an established alternative to tool steels and precipitation-hardened superalloys when designers need the combination of very high strength with superior toughness and machinability.

Industry-Specific

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
