PROPRIETARY Inconel alloy 718 Heat Treatments
- Annealed: 1800°F (980°C).
- For most applications, INCONEL alloy 718 is specified as: solution annealed and precipitation hardened (precipitation hardening, age hardening, and precipitation heat treatment are synonymous terms). Alloy 718 is hardened by the precipitation of secondary phases (e.g. gamma prime and gamma double-prime) into the metal matrix. The precipitation of these nickel-(aluminum, titanium, niobium) phases is induced by heat treating in the temperature range of 593 to 816°C (1100 to 1500°F). For this metallurgical reaction to properly take place, the aging constituents (aluminum, titanium, niobium) must be in solution (dissolved in the matrix); if they are precipitated as some other phase or are combined in some other form, they will not precipitate correctly and the full strength of the alloy with not be realized. To perform this function, the material must first be solution heat treated (solution annealed is a synonymous term). Two heat treatments are generally utilized:
1. Solution anneal at 927-1010°C (1700-1850°F) followed by rapid cooling, usually in water, plus precipitation hardening at 718°C (1325°F) for 8 hours, furnace cool to 621°C (1150°F), hold at 621°C (1150°F) for a total aging time of 18 hours, followed by air cooling.
2. Solution anneal at 1038-1066°C (1900-1950°F) followed by rapid cooling, usually in water, plus precipitation hardening at 760°C (1400°F) for 10 hours, furnace cool to 649°C (1200°F), hold at 649°C (1200°F) for a total aging time of 20 hours, followed by air cooling.
If the material is to be machined, formed, or welded, it typically is purchased in the mill annealed or stress relieved condition. The material is then fabricated in its most malleable condition. After fabrication, it can be heat treated as required per the applicable specification.
