17Ni-15Co-2.4Mo-1.8Ti is a precipitation-hardening maraging steel engineered for ultra-high strength with excellent toughness and fatigue resistance. The high nickel and cobalt content, combined with molybdenum and titanium additions, enables age-hardening to achieve exceptional strength levels while maintaining sufficient ductility for structural integrity. This grade is selected over conventional steels and aluminum alloys in aerospace and defense applications where weight savings, damage tolerance, and reliability under extreme loading are critical—particularly where traditional high-strength steels would be too brittle or where aluminum lacks adequate strength margins.
