Alloy 718 is an austenitic nickel-base superalloy which is used in applications requiring high strength

to approximately 1400°F (760°C) and oxidation resistance to approximately 1800°F (982°C). In addition, the
alloy exhibits excellent tensile and impact strength even at cryogenic temperatures. High strength at room
and elevated temperatures is developed by a precipitation heat treatment at 1325°F (718°C) with cooling
and a hold of 1150°F (621°C). The relatively slow response to precipitation hardening permits repair welding
of the alloy even in the aged condition. Click here to view the 718 Product Page on our website.
