ALLOY 718: Properties and Performance

Hangnie Super Alloys Co., Ltd. is a company that specializes in the supply of rare and exotic Nickel Alloys and Stainless Steels in most product forms including: SHEET, PLATE, BAR, FORGINGS, TUBE, PIPE AND FITTINGS. Nickel Alloys and Stainless Steels are materials that have high strength, corrosion resistance, and temperature resistance, which make them suitable for various applications in aerospace, oil and gas, chemical, power, and other industries.

ALLOY 718 is one of the products that Hangnie Super Alloys offers to its customers. ALLOY 718 is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-chromium alloy that contains significant amounts of iron, columbium, and molybdenum, along with lesser amounts of aluminum and titanium. ALLOY 718 has the following features:

•  ALLOY 718 has excellent mechanical properties at high and low temperatures, such as high tensile, fatigue, creep, and rupture strength. It can withstand temperatures up to 1300°F (704°C) and cryogenic temperatures down to -423°F (-253°C).

•  ALLOY 718 has outstanding corrosion resistance to various environments, such as pitting, crevice, intergranular, and stress corrosion cracking. It can resist oxidation, sulfidation, and carburization, as well as chloride, fluoride, and nitric acid solutions.

•  ALLOY 718 has good weldability and formability, which means it can be easily fabricated and joined by various methods, such as welding, brazing, forging, rolling, bending, and machining. It can also be hardened by heat treatment or cold working.

ALLOY 718 is available in various product forms, such as pipe, tube, sheet, strip, plate, round bar, flat bar, forging stock, hexagon and wire. ALLOY 718 is designated at UNS N07718, UNS N07719, and Werkstoff Nr. 2.4668. It is listed in NACE MR-01-75 for oil and gas service. ALLOY 718 meets various standards and specifications, such as ASTM, ASME, SAE, AECMA, ISO, and DIN, which are listed below:
