NeoNickel

Alloy 718

A precipitation-hardenable nickel-chromium grade, Alloy 718, often referred to as Inconel® 718, is a high strength superalloy used at temperatures up to 648°C.

With the addition of significant amounts of niobium and molybdenum along with aluminium and titanium, Alloy 718 has extremely high strength, excellent creep-stress rupture strength and good corrosion resistance.

About Alloy 718

Alloy 718, often referred to as Inconel® 718, is precipitation hardened to give maximum strength and high creep-stress rupture strength. The alloy can be supplied in the annealed condition to enhance machinability followed by subsequent appropriate heat treatments. Capability tests are completed on test samples which have had the precipitation hardening process completed.

Alloy 718/Inconel® 718, demonstrates outstanding weldability including resistance to post-weld cracking.

The major applications are components for gas turbines, aircraft engines, fasteners and other high strength applications. Its available in round bar, wire and sheet and plate.
