Inconel 718 (UNS N07718) Seamless Pipes & Tubes
Alloy 718 (Inconel 718, UNS N07718) is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-chromium alloy containing significant amounts of niobium and molybdenum. It possesses exceptionally high yield, tensile, and creep-rupture properties at temperatures up to 704C. Its unique age-hardening response allows it to be welded and annealed without spontaneous hardening during heating and cooling.
