Maraging Steels, Feature : Ultra-high Strength, High Levels Of Toughness Etc.

We offer maraging steels. This iron-based family of steels are based on a composition of iron and 18 % nickel with additions of cobalt, molybdenum and titanium plus other elements. The most frequently specified 'c' grades contain a significant amount of cobalt. There are also 't' (titanium) grades which contain no cobalt and have a lower molybdenum content and a greater addition of titanium compared with the corresponding strength 'c' grades. The structure of the alloys are formed of fine martensite which then undergoes an aging process (precipitation hardening) giving them the name 'mar-aging' steels.
maraging steels are characterised by ultra-high strength, simple aging treatment which minimises distortion, high levels of toughness, moderate corrosion resistance (similar to that of standard martensitic steels), good machinability (usually in the annealed condition) and good weldability.
applications are diverse and include missile casings, tooling, ordnance mounting blocks, high performance autosport components, couplings, bearings, load cells, landing gear components, transmission shafts, jet engine components and helicopter drive shafts.
