Full mill certs, heat-lot traceability, and fast RFQs from Fighter Jet Metals. ## What is AMS 5659? AMS 5659 is the SAE International aerospace material specification for 15-5 PH stainless steel (UNS S15500) in long product forms: bars, wire, forgings, rings, and extrusions, delivered in Condition A (solution heat treated). The alloy is a martensitic precipitation-hardening stainless steel with a nominal composition of 15% chromium, 5% nickel, and 3% copper, balanced with iron and a small addition of columbium (niobium). AMS 5659 bars and forgings are supplied in Condition A so the end user or heat treater can machine to near-net shape and then apply a precipitation-hardening cycle (H900 through H1150) to achieve the target mechanical properties for the finished component. ### Key facts - **Alloy:** 15-5 PH (UNS S15500) - UNS S15500 - **Metal family:** Stainless Steel (Precipitation Hardening) - **Minimum tensile strength:** 160 ksi min (1,103 MPa) - **Minimum yield strength:** 120 ksi min (827 MPa) - **Elongation:** 5% min - **Density:** 0.284 lb/in³ / 7.87 g/cm³ - **Forms available:** Round Bar, Flat Bar, Hex Bar, Wire, Forgings, Rings, Extrusions ### Common cross-references - **Sheet, Strip & Plate (UNS S15500):** AMS 5862 - **Boeing Material Specifications:** BMS 7-351, BMS 7-240 - **ASTM / ASME Specifications:** ASTM A564, ASTM A705 - **European EN / DIN Specifications:** DIN 1.4545, X5CrNiCuNb15-5 - **Military / Federal Specifications:** MIL-S-22216 - **Other Aerospace OEM Specifications:** OEM Specs ## Applications ## Contact - **Phone:** +1 (561) 210-3525 - **Email:** sales@fighterjetmetals.com - **Address:** 631 Lucerne Ave, Lake Worth, FL 33460, USA - **CAGE Code:** 8SNR8 - **DUNS Number:** 117752390 - **Certification:** AS9100D (BSI Group, certificate FS-828144, expires 2028-09-24) ## Optional: structured-data endpoint - JSON-LD Organization + Product + FAQPage + BreadcrumbList + WebSite is embedded in the page source.
