Stainless Steel, Precipitation Hardening2S143D S143 Bar

Aerospace-grade precipitation hardening stainless steel.

S143 is a British aerospace grade. It is a precipitation hardenable stainless steel that offers moderate corrosion resistance and high mechanical strength. It is widely used in the aerospace and defense industries.

Material to S144 and S145 shares a common chemical composition with S143. Therefore material to S143 can be precipitation hardened using a different sequence of temperatures to produce material meeting the mechanical property requirements of S144 or S145.
