- Impurities: Engineered with minimal impurities, featuring low iron (Fe ≤1.0%), sulfur (S ≤0.02%), and phosphorus (P ≤0.015%) to significantly reduce cracking risks.
2. Mechanical Properties
- Tensile Strength: Demonstrates remarkable tensile strength of ≥760 MPa, ensuring robust performance.
- Yield Strength: Delivers an impressive yield strength of ≥420 MPa, providing reliability under stress.
- Elongation: Exhibits excellent elongation of ≥27%, enhancing flexibility and durability.
- Impact Toughness: Offers superior impact toughness with high resistance to fatigue and stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for both cryogenic and high-temperature environments.
3. Physical Properties
- Density: Features a robust density of 8.4 g/cm³, contributing to its strength.
- Melting Range: Possesses a versatile melting range of 1290-1350°C, suitable for various industrial applications.
- Structure: Displays a face-centered cubic lattice, transitioning to stable Ni3(Nb,Ti) phases post heat treatment at approximately 650°C, ensuring structural integrity.
4. Key Features
- Corrosion Resistance: Boasts outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, proving indispensable in chloride, acidic, and marine environments.
- High-Temperature Stability: Retains formidable strength and oxidation resistance up to 1800°F (982°C), making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
- Versatility: Exceptionally versatile, ideal for welding dissimilar metals such as carbon steel to nickel alloys and for surface cladding.
5. Welding Process Compatibility
