I was wondering if anyone knows how high 17-4 material can be heated during solution without growing grain size. I know the recommended temp is 1900F but I'm wondering what will happen if the furnace is hotter(~1970F).
Thanks

Do you know what the original forging temperaure was? If it was higher than 1970 F, then grain growth should not be an issue.
