Product Details

Nimonic 90 high temperature alloy strip banner

Nimonic 90 high temperature alloy strip is a high-performance nickel-chromium-cobalt superalloy specifically engineered for the most demanding aerospace applications. As one of the premier creep-resistant alloys, it is renowned for its exceptional high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and thermal fatigue properties. These characteristics make it the ideal material for turbine blades and other critical hot-section components in jet engines and gas turbines.

This advanced superalloy strip combines outstanding mechanical properties with long-term structural stability at temperatures up to 920°C (1688°F), outperforming many conventional nickel-based alloys under extreme operating conditions. Whether used in military, commercial, or industrial gas turbines, Nimonic 90 delivers reliable and consistent performance in environments subjected to high temperatures and stress.

Key Properties of Nimonic 90 Alloy Strip

Nimonic 90 offers a highly desirable combination of properties that make it the material of choice for turbine blades and other critical aerospace components:

  • Superior Creep Resistance: Maintains strength under continuous stress at high temperatures, making it ideal for high-pressure turbine stages.

  • Excellent Oxidation Resistance: Forms a stable protective Cr₂O₃ oxide layer at elevated temperatures, preventing corrosion and material degradation.

  • High Tensile Strength: Capable of sustaining tensile strength up to 1000 MPa (145 ksi) at room temperature, which ensures durability and performance over time.

  • Outstanding Thermal Fatigue Resistance: Withstands repeated thermal cycling, maintaining integrity even during rapid heating and cooling cycles.

  • Age-Hardenable: Strengthened through gamma prime (γ') precipitation hardening, enhancing its mechanical properties and durability.

  • Good Fabricability: The alloy strip can be forged, machined, and welded with proper techniques, making it suitable for complex turbine components.

Primary Applications of Nimonic 90 Strip

The Nimonic 90 alloy strip is primarily used in high-stress, high-temperature environments where performance and reliability are critical. Its key applications include:

  1. Aircraft Turbine Blades (Critical Hot-Section Components)

    • Nimonic 90 is ideal for turbine blades in high-pressure stages of jet engines and industrial gas turbines. The alloy is especially beneficial for military aircraft engines requiring extreme reliability and performance under harsh conditions.

Performance Advantages:

    • Maintains strength at 850-920°C (1562-1688°F)

    • Resists creep deformation better than Inconel 718

    • Withstands thermal shock during rapid engine startups and shutdowns, making it ideal for high-performance engines that need quick temperature adjustments.

  1. Turbine Disks and Shafts

    • Nimonic 90 is used in rotor assemblies where high centrifugal forces are present. Its excellent fatigue resistance ensures the structural integrity of these critical rotating components.

  2. Exhaust System Components

    • This alloy is ideal for afterburner parts in military jets and nozzle guide vanes that require exceptional oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures.

  3. High-Temperature Fasteners

    • Used in turbine casing bolts and combustor assembly hardware, Nimonic 90 helps maintain the required clamp load at high temperatures, ensuring the safety and reliability of turbine components.
