Inconel X750 Round Bar
Inconel X750 Round Bar redefines high-stakes performance with its age-hardenable nickel-chromium alloy, engineered for sustained operation in temperatures exceeding 980°C. Combining oxidation resistance, stress rupture strength, and radiation tolerance, it is the cornerstone of mission-critical systems where failure is not an option.

Technical Dialogue
Q1: Heat treatment protocol for optimal aging?
A: Solution anneal at 1.095°C ±15°C/2h → Air cool → Age at 705°C/20h + 620°C/20h (Per AMS 5668).
Q2: Can X750 be cold drawn for spring applications?
A: Yes—achieves 1.500 MPa ultimate strength with 15% cold reduction (surface finish Ra ≤0.8μm).
Q3: Surface finish options for radiation environments?
A: Electropolished (ASTM B912) or AlTiN-coated (HVAF spray) to reduce neutron adherence.
Q4: How does X750 compare to Inconel 718?
A: X750 offers 20% higher stress rupture strength above 700°C but requires stricter aging control.
Q5: Traceability for nuclear projects?
A: Full PMI (Positive Material Identification) with 3D grain structure mapping (EBSD reports available).
