1.Introduction:

Inconel 718 is one kinds of heat resistant alloys which is a high strength, corrosion resistant nickel chromium alloy used at -423°F to 1300°F, initially developed for the aerospace industry and still considered the material of choice for the majority of aircraft engine components. Its excellent strength and corrosion resistance have been recognised by the oil industry and it is now widely used in this field.

2.Applications:

Gas turbine engine parts
Liquid fuel rocket motor components
Springs, fasteners
Cryogenic tanks

3.Size Range:

Plate and Sheet: Thickness: 0.016″-3.00″, Width: 20″-48″
Round Bar: 1/4″ Diameter to 12″ Diameter
Tube (welded & seamless): Outer Diameter: 1/16″-3″, Wall Thickness: 0.010″-0.250″,
Length: 17’/24′ FT R/L
Pipe: 1/4″ sch 10 to 16″ sch 80
Wire: 0.1mm-20mm

7.Heating and Pickling:

When Inconel 718 Heat Resistant Alloys is heated care must be taken to maintain both the furnace and the material being heated at correct temperatures.
Fuels used for heating must be extremely low in sulfur. The alloy must be absolutely clean and free from all oil, paint, grease, and shop soil when charged into the furnace.
The furnace atmosphere for forging or open annealing should be slightly reducing, containing at least 2% carbon monoxide. A slight positive pressure should be maintained in the furnace to prevent air infiltration.
When Inconel 718 Heat Resistant Alloys is heated in a reducing atmosphere, a thin, adherent green-black film of oxide will be left on the surface of the material. In oxidizing atmospheres, a heavy black scale is produced that is very difficult to remove.
Every precaution should be taken in heating so that only the green-black film is formed.

8.Heat Treatment:

For most applications, Inconel 718 Heat Resistant Alloys is specified as: solution annealed and precipitation hardened (precipitation hardening, age hardening, and precipitation heat treatment are synonymous terms).

Inconel 718 Heat Resistant Alloys is hardened by the precipitation of secondary phases (e.g. gamma prime and gamma double-prime) into the metal matrix.
The precipitation of these nickel-(aluminum, titanium, niobium) phases is induced by heat treating in the temperature range of 1100 to 1500°F. For this metallurgical reaction to properly take place, the aging constituents (aluminum, titanium, niobium) must be in solution (dissolved in the matrix); if they are precipitated as some other phase or are combined in some other form, they will not precipitate correctly and the full strength of the alloy with not be realized.

CORROSION RESISTANCE:

Inconel 718 Heat Resistant Alloys has excellent corrosion resistance to many media. This resistance, which is similar to that of other nickel-chromium alloys, is a function of its composition. Nickel contributes to corrosion resistance in many inorganic and organic, other than strongly oxidizing, compounds throughout wide ranges of acidity and alkalinity.
It also is useful in combating chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking. Chromium imparts an ability to withstand attack by oxidizing media and sulfur compounds. Molybdenum is known to contribute to resistance to pitting in many media.
