What are the common applications and industries where Inconel 718 bars, rods, and wires are used?
Inconel 718 bars, rods, and wires find widespread applications across various industries due to their exceptional properties and high-performance characteristics. The aerospace industry is one of the primary sectors where Inconel 718 is extensively utilized. It is employed in manufacturing engine components, such as turbine blades, discs, and casings, where its superior strength, high-temperature resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance are crucial factors. Moreover, the oil and gas industry heavily relies on Inconel 718 for downhole tools, wellhead components, and other critical equipment that operate under extreme conditions, including high pressures and temperatures.
What are the advantages of using Inconel 718 bars, rods, and wires?
Using Inconel 718 bars offers several advantages, making them a preferred choice in various industries. Firstly, Inconel 718 bars exhibit exceptional high-temperature strength, allowing them to maintain their mechanical properties even at elevated temperatures. This characteristic makes them suitable for applications in environments with extreme heat, such as aerospace engines, where they can withstand intense conditions and retain their structural integrity.
Using Inconel 718 rods offers several advantages, making them a preferred choice in various industries and applications. One of the primary advantages is the exceptional high-temperature strength of Inconel 718 rods. They can withstand and maintain their mechanical properties even in extreme heat environments. This property is particularly important in industries such as aerospace, where components like turbine blades and discs operate at elevated temperatures. The high-temperature strength of Inconel 718 rods ensures these critical components' structural integrity and reliability.
Using Inconel 718 wires offers significant advantages in various industries and applications. These wires exhibit exceptional high-temperature resistance, maintaining strength and stability even under extreme heat conditions. That makes them well-suited for applications in aerospace, gas turbines, and other high-temperature environments where reliable performance is crucial. Secondly, Inconel 718 wires possess excellent corrosion resistance, protecting corrosive environments such as acids, seawater, and chemicals.
Manufacturing Process Of Inconel 718 Bars
Melting and Casting
Steel and alloying metals are loaded into an electric arc furnace. Once in the furnace, the metal is heated to a specific temperature above its melting point, usually in excess of 2800°F.
Forming
Most cast steel is formed by hot rolling—the slab, bloom, or billet is heated and passed through large rollers, stretching out the steel into a longer, thinner form.
Heat treatment
Heat treatment strengthens rolled stainless steel by recrystallizing the deformed microstructure. Most stainless steel is heat treated by annealing.
Descaling
A rolled piece of stainless steel acquires a layer of oxidized “mill scale,” which needs to be washed away to restore a shiny surface finish.
Cutting or Machining
Stainless steel is cut to a specified shape and size. The stainless steel can be sheared with circular knives, sawed with high-speed blades, or blanked with punches.
Packaging and Delivery
To reach their destination in pristine condition, we employ careful packaging techniques.
