MP159
Description:
MP159 is a Nickel-Cobalt based multiphase alloy. This combination of properties enables ultra high strength, toughness, good ductility and excellent corrosion resistance. Through work strengthening and aging MP159 alloy exhibits ultimate tensile strength levels in excess of 1830 MPa. MP159 is used in many different industries from use in prosthetic devices, jet engine components, fasteners, marine applications to petroleum industry applications.
