Wichard uses only top-quality stainless steel in its products. Most products are made of AISI316L antimagnetic alloy. Another special stainless steel grade used by Wichard is AISI630HR (High Resistance) magnetic alloy. Wichard products are manufactured by forging. This method eliminates internal structural defects in the material. This prevents possible cracks that may occur in cast metal products. Wichard marks its products by stamping. This is a guarantee of a safe product that has passed Wichard quality control.

HR 17-4 PH stainless steel is a special steel grade with high strength and corrosion resistance properties. It is a partially hardened and hardenable steel, particularly known for its good strength and excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures and in demanding environments.

HR means that the steel is heat treated (Heat Resistant), and 17-4 PH refers to its composition (17% chromium and 4% nickel) and ability to be hardened by post-treatment (Precipitation Hardening treatment).

This steel is commonly used in high-end applications such as ship parts, the aerospace industry, and many other industrial and demanding environments where excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance are required.
