So I'm starting a job machining 174-ph HH-1150. I've found lotsa info
on condition H1150 but not much on HH1150. I know that the HH1150 is
heat treated twice at 1150 degrees F and that it's hardness is 28RC.
It is softer than the annealed condition. What I have not been able to
find out about is whether it will be gummy and tend to stick to the
cutting tool like 316SS or 304SS. It's been several years since I
machined any 17-4 (12 years maybe?) and I don't remember the condition
it came in. I don't think it was HH1150. It seems like HH1150 is now
more common than H1150 because it is mostly backwards compatible with
H1150. But how long this has been the case I don't know.
Thanks,
Eric

Cuts like butter.

I've yet to find anything that cuts like butter other than ice cream,
crisco, or ... Well, umentionables.
