Nickel Alloy Castings

There is a wide variety of different nickel base alloys to offer reasonable mechanical properties along with either corrosion or high temperature properties.

Alloy Properties
Representative AlloysMonel®, Inconel®, Hastelloy®, ILLIUM® G, ILLIUM® 98
ApplicationsWhere maintenance or product purity is important. Well-suited to high temperature conditions
LimitationsDifficult for the inexperienced Foundry to produce
Typical UsesFluid handling systems, chemical processing, fresh and salt water applications
MachinabilityGood to fair. Lower feeds and speeds generally
WeldabilityGenerally good
Corrosion ResistanceGood resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Some grades especially resistant to attack from hydrochloric acid; others to hydrofluoric acid
