10Ni-8Co-0.6Ti Maraging Steel

10Ni-8Co-0.6Ti maraging steel is a precipitation-hardened iron-nickel alloy engineered for ultra-high strength with retained toughness, achieved through age-hardening rather than carbon-based strengthening. It is widely used in aerospace, defense, and precision tooling applications where extreme strength-to-weight ratios and dimensional stability are critical—particularly in rocket motor casings, landing gear, high-performance dies, and small-arms components. This alloy is favored over conventional high-strength steels because it combines exceptionally high yield strength with acceptable ductility and weldability, while its low carbon content minimizes brittleness and enables straightforward manufacturing and repair.
