High mechanical strength for extreme conditions

INCONEL® 718, UNS N07718, is a nickel-chromium superalloy designed to operate under extreme temperature and mechanical stress conditions.

Its precipitation hardening allows a very high combination of mechanical strength, fatigue resistance and structural stability, maintaining reliable performance up to approximately 650-700 °C.

It is a common material in aerospace, energy, nuclear and oil & gas sectors when critical components with high structural reliability are required.
