Inconel 725
Description:
Alloy 725 / Inconel 725 is a nickel chromium-molybdenum-niobium alloy that is highly resistant to corrosion and is age hardenable for extremely high strength. It has essentially the same corrosion resistance as INCONEL alloy 625, which is widely used in a broad range of severely corrosive environments. The strength of age-hardened Alloy 725 is of the order of twice that of annealed alloy 625. Alloy 725 strength is developed by heat treatment rather than by cold work this also enables strength to be imparted to large non-uniform sections that cannot be strengthened by cold works.
