Nimonic 86 Bars

Nimonic 86 Bars is an alloy of Nickel and Chromium manufactured to have superior temperature strength, creep resistance, and fatigue properties. This unique combination of metals allows Nimonic 86 Bars to be used in applications where even the most challenging materials are needed, such as turbines and exhaust systems. The chemical composition of Nimonic 86 Bars consists mainly of Nickel at 90%, with a small portion made up of Chromium at 8% and trace amounts of Molybdenum and Copper. These exacting ratios create an alloy with superior economic performance characteristics, creating a material capable of withstanding high temperatures while resisting corrosion during prolonged exposure to extreme environments.

Nimonic 86 Bars are highly beneficial for the industry due to their perfect oxidation and corrosion resistance, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and excellent flexibility. The careful combination of Nickel with Chromium produces a super alloy that is flexible enough to be machined and cast into complex shapes. The versatility of Nimonic 86 Bars has made them a popular element in the aerospace industry and other extreme temperature applications. Vector Steel stocks Nimonic 86 Bars and can custom fabricate them into crankshafts, compressor blades, guide vanes, fasteners, springs, valve stems, and bearing retention elements.
