Haynes 282® Nickel Alloy Synergic Gas Metal Arc Welded (GMAW) Plate

Excellent High Temperature Strength HAYNES® 282® alloy is a wrought, gamma-prime strengthened superalloy developed for high temperature structural applications, especially those in aero and land-based gas turbine engines. It possesses a unique combination of creep strength, thermal stability, weldability, and fabricability not found in currently available commercial alloys. The alloy has excellent creep strength in the temperature range of 1200 to 1700°F (649 to 927°C), surpassing that of Waspaloy alloy, and approaching that of R-41 alloy. Easily Fabricated: This high level of creep strength in HAYNES 282 alloy has been attained at a relatively low volume fraction of the strengthening gamma-prime phase, resulting in outstanding resistance to strain-age cracking (normally a problem with superalloys in this creep strength range). Additionally, slow gamma-prime precipitation kinetics allow for the alloy to have excellent ductility in the as-annealed condition. Consequently, HAYNES 282 alloy exhibits superior weldability and fabricability. Product Forms: HAYNES 282 alloy is designed for use in the form of plate, sheet, strip, foil, billet, bar, wire welding products, pipe, and tubing. Heat Treatment: HAYNES 282 alloy is provided in the solution-annealed condition, in which it is readily formable. The typical solution annealing temperature is in the range of 2050 to 2100°F (1121 to 1149°C). After component fabrication, a two-step age hardening treatment is required to put the alloy into the high-strength condition. The treatment includes 1850°F (1010°C) / 2 hours / AC (air cool) + 1450°F (788°C) / 8 hours / AC. Applications: Suitable for critical gas turbine applications, such as sheet fabrications, seamless and flash butt-welded rings, and cases found in compressor, combustor, and turbine sections. In augmented aircraft gas turbines, it is useful for exhaust and nozzle components. In land-based gas turbines, HAYNES 282 alloy is a good candidate for transition sections and other hot-gas-path components. Machining: HAYNES 282 alloy has similar machining characteristics to other nickel alloys used at high temperatures. Rough machining should be carried out prior to age-hardening, using the following guidelines. Final machining or finish grinding may be done after age-hardening.Tensile properties reported are for transverse synergic gas metal arc welded plate specimens. Other properties are typical of the alloy.Data provided by the manufacturer, Haynes International, Inc.
