SAE Nimonic 263 Heat Treatments


  • Solution heat treatment: Heating to a temperature within the range 1038 - 1163°C (1900 - 2125°F) holding at the selected temperature within ±14°C (±25°F) for a time commensurate with cross-sectional thickness, and cooling at a rate equivalent to an air cool or faster.
    Precipitation heat treatment: Precipitation heat treated by heating to 802 ± 8°C (1475 ± 15°F), holding at heat for 8 ± 0.5 hours, and cooling in air.
    Elevated temperature properties: Obtained after heating the specimen to 779 ± 6°C (1435 ± 10°F), holding at heat for 20 - 30 minutes before testing, and testing at 779 ± 6°C (1435 ± 10°F).
  • Solution heat treatment: heating to a temperature within the range 1038 to 1177°C (1900 to 2150°F), holding at the selected temperature within ± 14°C (± 25°F) for a time commensurate with cross-sectional thickness, and cooling at a rate equivalent to an air cool or faster.
    Precipitation heat treatment: heating to 802°C ± 8°C (1475°F ± 15°F), holding at heat for 8 hours ± 0.5 hour, and cooling in air.
    Before testing the sample at 779°C, it is necessary to heat samples to 779 ± 6°C (1435 ± 10°F), hold for 20 to 30 minutes before testing.
