Inconel 718 Specifications

UNS N07718 | ASTM B637 | Age-Hardenable Nickel Superalloy

Comprehensive specifications for Inconel 718, an age-hardenable nickel-chromium-iron superalloy with exceptional high-temperature strength and excellent fabricability.

Inconel 718 Overview

Material Description

Inconel 718 (UNS N07718) is an age-hardenable nickel-chromium-iron superalloy initially developed for aerospace gas turbine applications. It has become the preferred material for oil & gas wellhead components, downhole tools, and sub-surface safety valves.

This superalloy exhibits excellent sub-zero toughness and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement, making it ideal for sour gas service. The alloy can achieve strength levels up to 150 ksi through controlled heat treatment and is approved for NACE MR0175 applications.

Key Benefits:

  • Age-hardenable to high strength levels
  • Excellent sub-zero toughness
  • Resistance to hydrogen embrittlement
  • NACE MR0175 approved for sour service
