Inconel 718 is anickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy designed to resist awide range of severely corrosive environments, pitting and crevice corrosion. This nickel steel alloy also displays exceptionally high yield, tensile, and creep-rupture properties at high temperatures. This nickel alloy is used from cryogenic temperatures up to long term service at 1200° F. One of the distinguishing features of Inconel 718's composition is the addition of niobium to permit age hardening which allows annealing and welding without spontaneous hardening during heating and cooling. The addition of niobium acts with the molybdenum to stiffen the alloy's matrix and provide high strength without astrengthening heat treatment. Other popular nickel-chromium alloys are age hardened through the addition of aluminum and titanium. This nickel steel alloy is readily fabricated and may be welded in either the annealed or precipitation (age) hardened condition. Thissuperalloyis used in avariety of industries such as aerospace, chemical processing, marine engineering, pollution-control equipment
What are the characteristics of Inconel 718?Good mechanical properties -tensile, fatigue and creep-ruptureYield tensile strength, creep, and rupture strength properties are exceedingly highHighly resistant to chloride and sulfide stress corrosion crackingResistant to aqueous corrosion and chloride ion stress corrosion crackingHigh temperature resistantAge-hardenable with aunique property of slow aging response that permits heating and cooling during annealing without the danger of cracking.Excellent welding characteristics, resistant to postweld age cracking
