General Information |
Principal Design Features |
A general purpose structural engineering material for use at high temperatures where strength, stability, and durability are important. The alloy also has very good corrosion resistance. When considering this alloy, also investigate Alloy 690, which doub |
|
Applications |
Heaters, heat exchangers, chemical process equipment, heat treat furnace components and fixtures and gas turbine components. |
|
Machinability |
Conventional machining techniques used for iron based alloys may be used. This alloy does work-harden during machining and has higher strength and "gumminess" not typical of steels. Heavy duty machining equipment and tooling should be used to minimize c |
|
Forming |
This alloy has good ductility and may be readily formed by all conventional methods. Because the alloy is stronger than regular steel it requires more powerful equipment to accomplish forming. Heavy-duty lubricants should be used during cold forming. I |
|
Corrosion Resistance |
General corrosion resistance is good in many acid solutions, both oxidizing and reducing acids, as well as being resistant to salts. It is basically completely resistant to corrosion by organic acids. Because of the high nickel content the alloy is virt |
|
Welding |
The commonly used welding methods work well with this alloy. Matching alloy filler metal should be used. If matching alloy is not available then the nearest alloy richer in the essential chemistry (Ni, Co, Cr, Mo) should be used. All weld beads should |
|
Heat Treatment |
Solution anneal at 1850 F for 15 minutes at temperature and air cool. |
|
Forging |
Forging may be done in the temperature range of 2250 F to 1900 F. |
|
Hot Working |
The hot work temperature range is 2250 F to 1600 F. The alloy has low ductility in the range of 1200 F to 1600 F and working in that temperature range should be avoided. |
|
Cold Working |
Cold forming may be done using standard tooling although plain carbon tool steels are not recommended for forming as they tend to produce galling. Soft die materials (bronze, zinc alloys, etc.) minimize galling and produce good finishes, but die life is |
