Video: Inconel 718 - The Extreme Metal Alloy
Inconel 718, The Extreme Metal Alloy. http://www.techsteel.net/alloy/nickel/inconel-718 Turbine Blades have revolutionized air travel and power generation. Hundreds of thin precision blades spinning at 100,000 RPM need a material that can withstand extreme conditions.Inconel 718 is a unique metal alloy that can withstand extreme temperatures from -423° to 1300°FThis alloy is aged hardened, allowing it to be welded without hardening during heating and cooling.The development of Inconel began in the 1950s for use in critical steam line plants. Initially used for military applications it was later adopted by the commercial sector. Inconel 718's tolerance for extreme temperature make it especially well suited for applications such as turbine bladesnuclear power plants, andaerospace applications. It was used in the space shuttles high pressure pump.For more inconel 718 information visit techsteel.netTech Steel offers Specialty Alloys and Materials.Visit www.techsteel....
