Inconel 718

Overview of Inconel 718

Inconel 718, also known as UNS N07718 or AMS5596,AMS5662, is a high-performance nickel-based superalloy.
The alloy was developed by the American International Nickel Corporation (Inco) in the 1950s, because of its excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and high temperature stability, in aerospace, energy, chemical and other fields are widely used.

Aerospace: Used as a key component of aeroengines and gas turbines, such as turbine blades, turbine discs and rotors.
Energy: Various elastic elements used in reactor pressure vessels, control rod drive mechanisms and nuclear fuel cycle systems for nuclear power plants.
Chemical: In the petroleum and chemical industry, it is used to manufacture a variety of high temperature and corrosion resistant equipment and pipelines.
Cryogenic engineering: Used for the manufacture of low temperature storage containers such as liquid nitrogen and liquid hydrogen.
Mold manufacturing: Used to manufacture high-temperature molds, withstand high temperature and high pressure working environment.
