About Superalloys

Superalloys are nickel, cobalt or iron-based alloys with elevated temperature strength, creep properties, and oxidation resistance. Nickel, nickel alloys, cobalt, and cobalt alloys are non-ferrous metals with high strength and toughness, excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance, and high to superior temperature strength. Ferrous metals and alloys are based on iron and include carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, cast iron, maraging steel and other specialty iron-based alloys. Clad or bimetal superalloys consist of two different alloys that are bonded integrally together. Metal matrix composites have a composite or reinforced metal or alloy matrix filled with a second component, which may be in particulate, chopped fiber, continuous filament, or fabric form. Other unlisted, specialty or proprietary superalloys are also available. These materials are often based on a unique alloy system, use a novel processing technology, or have properties tailored for specific applications.    


Products & Services Related to Superalloys

Aluminum and Aluminum Alloys
Aluminum and aluminum alloys are lightweight, non-ferrous metals with good corrosion resistance, ductility and strength.
Ferrous Metals and Iron Alloys
Ferrous metals and alloys are based on iron and include carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, cast iron, cast steel, maraging steel, and specialty or proprietary iron-based alloys. 
Metal Sheet
Metal sheet is metal or alloy stock supplied or available in the form of sheet or foil. Metal sheet has a thickness between 0.006" and 0.250", and is 24" (609.6 mm) or more in width.
Metal Strip
Metal strip is narrow, thin metal or alloy stock that is usually 0.187" (3/16 inch, 4.76 mm) or less in thickness and under 24 inches (609.6 mm) in width.
Metal Wire and Strand
Metal wire and strand has a round, flat, or shaped cross section. Products are usually less than 0.375" in diameter.
Nickel and Nickel Alloys
Nickel and nickel alloys are non-ferrous metals with high strength and toughness, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior elevated temperature properties.
