3 OVERVIEW
S15500 stainless steel is a martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel that provides an outstanding combination of high strength, good corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties at temperatures up to 600°F (316°C) and good toughness in both the longitudinal and transverse directions in both base metal and welds.
Short-time, low-temperature heat treatments minimize distortion and scaling.
This alloy is air melted and AOD refined.
4 APPLICATION
S15500 is widely used in the aerospace, chemical, petrochemical, food processing, paper and general metalworking industries.
S15500 is used in applications that require high transverse strength and toughness such as engine parts, aircraft components, nuclear reactor components etc.

7 MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
S15500 stainless steel provides excellent mechanical properties. For applications requiring high strength and hardness plus corrosion resistance, this alloy is an outstanding choice. In addition, it is more cost effective than many high-nickel, non-ferrous alloys.

8 CORROSION RESISTANCE
The general level of corrosion resistance of S15500 stainless steel exceeds that of Types 410 and 431, and is approximately equal to that of S17400 stainless steel. This is indicated by laboratory tests in both strongly oxidizing and reducing media, as well as by atmospheric exposures. In all heat-treated conditions, this alloy exhibits very little rusting after 500 hours exposure to 5% salt fog at 95°F (35°C).
When exposed to seacoast atmospheres for long periods of time, the material gradually develops a superficial layer of rust like other precipitation-hardening stainless steels. The general level of corrosion resistance is best in the fully hardened condition, and decreases slightly as the aging temperature is increased.
9 WORKING INSTRUCTION
Formability
The tensile data for the S15500 indicate that the alloy does not possess the high tensile elongation characteristic of the austenitic stainless steels. The material is capable of being mildly formed but is not capable of being severely formed. Forming is more easily accomplished in the overaged condition (such as H1150), as opposed to the annealed condition. A less dramatic downward shift in strength results from excessively long precipitation hardening times. For maximum softness to provide the best machinability and formability, a two-step “1400 + 1150” heat treatment may be used. This treatment, as described in ASTM Standard A693, involves a 2-hour exposure at 1400±15°F (760 ± 8°C), air cooling, a subsequent 4-hour exposure at 1150 ± 15°F (621 ± 8°C), and final air cooling.
Weldability
The precipitation hardening class of stainless steels is generally considered to be weldable by the common fusion and resistance techniques. Preheating is not usually required. Postweld heat treating is needed to produce the various precipitation hardened heat treatment properties. Special consideration is required to achieve optimum mechanical properties by considering the best heat-treated conditions in which to weld and which heat treatments should follow welding. This particular alloy is generally considered to have equivalent weldability to the most common alloy of this stainless class, S17400 stainless steel.
Heat treatment
As supplied from the Mill in Condition A, S15500 stainless steel can be heat treated at a variety of temperatures to develop a wide range of properties. Eight standard heat treatments have been developed. The following table outlines the times and temperatures required.
