JIS G3445 STKM17A Material Machining Technology
JIS G3445 STKM17A steel can be heat-treated at high temperatures to increase its strength and other mechanical properties. The alloy is very tolerant of heat up to 800°C. It is normally annealed at around 650°C and cooled slowly in order to recover its strength. On the other hand, when subjected to extreme temperatures, it is known to form martensite, an extremely hard form of steel that has a unique molecular structure. It is ideal for use in applications that require tremendous strength and wear resistance, such as high-pressure industrial applications.
