NICKEL X-750 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Heat-treated strength: Although much of the effect of precipitation hardening is lost with increasing temperature over 1300°F, heat-treated Nickel X-750 still maintains useful strength up to 1800°F. Additionally, this alloy has exceptional properties even at low cryogenic temperatures, making it a versatile option for a range of applications.
Various heat treatments: To achieve the desired properties for a particular application, various heat treatments can be employed. For use above 1100°F, where loads are to be sustained for long periods of time, optimum properties are achieved through solution treating (2100°F), stabilize treating (1550°F), and precipitation treating (1300°F). For use below 1100°F, the alloy can be strengthened through precipitation treating after hot or cold working, or after equalizing or solution treating. A furnace-cooling treatment can also be used to develop optimum properties for certain applications.
Excellent relaxation resistance: Due to its excellent relaxation resistance, X-750 is a great choice for high-temperature springs and bolts. This alloy is also used in gas turbines, rocket engines, nuclear reactors, pressure vessels, tooling, and aircraft structures.
In conclusion, ALLOY X-750 is a versatile and high-performance alloy that offers a range of benefits for use in high-temperature and high-stress applications. Its good resistance to corrosion and oxidation, combined with its ability to maintain high tensile and creep rupture properties at various temperatures, make it a popular choice for a variety of industries.
