Abstract
Abstract An alloy is described which is suitable for the manufacture of castings which operate under high temperature conditions (such as nozzle guide vanes for gas turbine engines) but which can also be welded satisfactorily. The alloy comprises ______________________________________ Chromium 14.5-16.5%
Cobalt 9-11%
Molybdenum 5.5-8%
Aluminium 1.5-3%
Titanium 1.5-3%
Tantalum 0-1%
Niobium 0-1%
Boron 0.004-0.008%
Iron 0-0.5%
Manganese 0-0.4%
Silicon 0-0.2%
Nitrogen 0-0.5%
Carbon 0.11-0.18%
______________________________________ The balance being Nickel apart from incidental impurities.
