One of the principal advantages of these materials is their versatility. Although certain heat treatments are classified as standard, there are applications where deviations from these standards are desirable.
The graphs show the effect of variations in annealing temperature on typical mechanical properties of 17-7 PH sheet, strip, and plate.
