### **Product Introduction: Alloy WE132 / INCONEL WE132 Sheet** **Alloy WE132 (INCONEL® WE132) Sheet** is a premium, age-hardenable nickel-chromium alloy supplied in thin, flat form. It is the sheet product version of the well-known **INCONEL 718** superalloy, with the "WE132" designation often associated with its welding electrode counterpart. This material is engineered to deliver an exceptional combination of high strength, outstanding corrosion resistance, and excellent fabrication characteristics, making it ideal for complex components requiring lightweight and durable solutions. The sheet form is particularly valued for its ability to be formed, stamped, and welded into intricate shapes that must perform reliably from cryogenic temperatures up to approximately 700°C (1300°F). --- #### **Key Features & Advantages** * **High Strength-to-Weight Ratio:** Provides superior structural efficiency in weight-critical designs. * **Excellent Formability:** Can be cold-formed and deep-drawn into complex components in the annealed condition. * **Superior Weldability:** Exhibits excellent weldability with minimal susceptibility to post-weld heat treatment cracking, a key advantage over other age-hardenable superalloys. * **Exceptional High-Temperature Performance:** Retains significant mechanical properties, including creep and stress-rupture strength, at elevated temperatures. * **Outstanding Corrosion Resistance:** Offers robust resistance to a wide range of corrosive media, including pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress-corrosion cracking (SCC). --- #### **Chemical Composition (Typical Weight %)** The standard composition for the sheet product (INCONEL 718) conforms to the following range: | Element | Content (%) | Element | Content (%) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Nickel (Ni)** | 50 - 55 | **Molybdenum (Mo)** | 2.8 - 3.3 | | **Chromium (Cr)** | 17 - 21 | **Aluminum (Al)** | 0.2 - 0.8 | | **Iron (Fe)** | Balance | **Titanium (Ti)** | 0.65 - 1.15 | | **Niobium (Nb)** | 4.75 - 5.5 | **Carbon (C)** | ≤ 0.08 | | **Manganese (Mn)** | ≤ 0.35 | **Silicon (Si)** | ≤ 0.35 | | **Cobalt (Co)** | ≤ 1.0 | **Sulfur (S)** | ≤ 0.015 | | **Boron (B)** | ≤ 0.006 | **Copper (Cu)** | ≤ 0.30 | *The strengthening phases are achieved through precipitation hardening, primarily from the formation of Niobium-rich gamma double prime (γ") phase.* --- #### **Physical Properties** | Property | Metric Unit | Imperial Unit | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Density** | 8.19 g/cm³ | 0.296 lb/in³ | | **Melting Range** | 1260 - 1336 °C | 2300 - 2440 °F | | **Specific Heat (20°C)** | 435 J/kg·K | 0.104 Btu/lb·°F | | **Thermal Conductivity** | 11.4 W/m·K (100°C) | 79 Btu·in/hr·ft²·°F (212°F) | | **Thermal Expansion Coefficient** | 13.0 μm/m·°C (20-100°C) | 7.2 x10⁻⁶ in/in·°F (68-212°F) | | **Modulus of Elasticity** | 200 GPa | 29 x 10⁶ psi | --- #### **Mechanical Properties (Typical for Solution Annealed & Aged Condition)** *Properties can vary with sheet thickness and specific aging treatment.* | Property | Value (Metric) | Value (Imperial) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Tensile Strength, Ultimate** | ≥ 1275 MPa | ≥ 185 ksi | | **Tensile Strength, Yield (0.2% Offset)** | ≥ 1035 MPa | ≥ 150 ksi | | **Elongation at Break** | ≥ 12 % | ≥ 12 % | | **Hardness (Rockwell C)** | ≥ 35 HRC | ≥ 35 HRC | --- #### **International Standards** INCONEL WE132 Sheet is manufactured to meet stringent international standards, including: * **ASTM B168:** Standard Specification for Nickel-Chromium-Iron Alloys (UNS N06617, N06625, N06690, N06025, and N07718) Plate, Sheet, and Strip. * *UNS N07718 is the designation for INCONEL 718.* * **AMS 5596:** Aerospace Material Specification for Sheet, Strip, and Plate. * **AMS 5525:** For thin strip and sheet. * **UNS N07718:** Unified Numbering System designation. * **DIN 2.4668:** German standard designation. --- #### **Product Applications** The formability and high strength of WE132 sheet make it indispensable in industries where complex, lightweight, and high-integrity components are required: * **Aerospace & Defense:** * Aircraft engine shrouds, casings, and afterburner liners. * Rocket motor casings and cryogenic fuel tank components. * Structural components for high-speed airframes. * **Oil & Gas:** * Flexible metal hoses for sour service (H₂S environments). * Gaskets, seals, and downhole instrumentation housings. * **Power Generation:** * Gas turbine combustion liners, spacers, and seals. * **General Industrial:** * High-temperature bellows, expansion joints, and heat exchanger plates. * Forming tools and molds for the plastics industry. --- **Disclaimer:** *INCONEL® is a registered trademark of Special Metals Corporation.
