SINOXX 4542 can be used for a variety of applications, including offshore applications such as foils, helicopter deck platforms, and oil field valve parts; turbine blades, aircraft fittings, jet engine parts, and more in the aerospace industry; nuclear waste casks and reactor components; as well as various mechanical components. It is also used in the food and pulp and paper industries.

• High temperature application – it is suited up to 350°C, just for short time it can be used maximum 50°C bellow the precipitation hardening temperature
• Application with condition H900 (PH at 482°C) – this heat treatment provides high tensile strength and high hardness for application where wear resistance is needed with good corrosion properties. It is not suited for subzero application.
• Application with condition H1150 (PH at 621°C) – this heat treatment provides very high impact strength so the steel can be used up to -80°C
• Application with condition H1150D (double PH at 621°C) – steel can be used up to -196°C, with good corrosion resistance.
