Maraging Steel Alloy Product Guide
Applications | Specifications | Mechanical and Chemical Data
Overview
Maraging Steel Alloy is a carbon free iron-nickel blend of steel with hint of aluminum, titanium, cobalt, and Molybdenum. It is easily cold worked, forged, and welded. Additionally, maraging steel has good machinability. It is a very high strength, comparatively low weight metal often used in the aerospace industry.
