4 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION (wt%):

5 PHYSICAL CONSTANTS

Density: 8.01 g/cm³ (0.289 lb/in³)

Melting Range: Liquidus temperature 1345°C, solidus temperature 1290°C.

6 MECHANICAL PROPERTY

Tensile properties: extruded bar subsequently forged

The data given in Table below and presented graphically in Figures 1 and 2 represent the tensile properties for extruded bar subsequently forged after the 3-stage heat treatment.

Strain rate 0.005/min to proof stress (at room temperature), 0.002/min to proof stress (at elevated temperatures) and 0.1/min thereafter.

Heat treatment 4 h/1150°C/AC + 16 h/1050-1065°C/AC + 16 h/850°C/AC

8 WORKING INSTRUCTION

Hot working
Alloy 105 may be hot worked in the temperature range 1050-1200°C.

Annealing

Interstage annealing of Alloy 105 should be carried out at 1150°C followed by air cooling of fluidized bed quenching. Water quenching is not recommended as severe surface cracking may result from thermal shock.

Machining

Alloy 105 should be in the fully heat-treated condition for all machining operations. The high hardness range 320-385 HV, necessitates the use of tungsten carbide tipped tools. High speed steel shock-proof tools can be used if the cut is of an intermittent nature.

Heat treatment

The heat treatment recommended is dependent on the intended service condition.

Two heat treatments are recommended as follows:

(a) 4 h/1150°C/AC+16 h/1050-1065°C/AC+16h/850°C/AC

(b) 4 h/1125°C/AC+16 h/850°/AC

In general, heat treatment (a) is intended for optimum long-term creep strength and ductility at operating temperatures in the range 850-950°C. Heat-treatment (b) may be used where long-term properties are not of paramount importance and tensile strength, elongation and impact strength may be enhanced for operating temperatures up to 700°C. When applying heat-treatment (b), it is essential to ensure that cooling from 1125°C takes place freely and is not delayed due to close packing of components.

Examples of the use of these heat treatments are as follows:

(a) Turbine blades, discs, forgings and ring sections, all of which may be produced from as extruded, as forged or subsequently cold worked starting stock

(b) Bolts and fasteners for which extruded and cold worked bar or section is recommended as starting stock.
