AMS 5872 specification covers a solution and precipitation heat treatable, corrosion- and heat-resistant nickel-base alloy in the form of sheet, strip, and plate. Alloy 263 (Nimonic® 263 / UNS N07263 / Werkstoff 2.4650) is an age-hardenable nickel-cobalt-chrome-molybdenum alloy which was designed to have excellent fabrication characteristics in the annealed condition but also very good aged strength properties. Alloy 263 is easier to form or weld than other materials such as Waspaloy or Rene 41 and exhibits excellent intermediate temperature ductility. ZYTC Alloy is an ISO 9001 and AS 9120B certified superalloy manufacturer and supplier, offering AMS 5872 Alloy 263 sheet at factory-direct prices with full material traceability and fast global delivery.
Product Specifications & AvailableNimonic 263 sheet, strip, and plate are supplied in the annealed condition. The alloy's excellent ductility in this condition makes it suitable for cold forming as well as hot working. It can be welded using matching composition filler wire in both TIG and MIG forms. Available Forms: Sheet, strip, plate; also bar, round bar, flat bar, wire, tube, and forgings Specifications: AMS 5872, ASTM B546, UNS N07263, Werkstoff Nr. 2.4650, BS HR206
Fabrication Solution Annealing: 1150°C (2100°F) × 0.5 hours (hot-rolled sheet) or 3-10 minutes (cold-rolled sheet), water quench or air cool Aging: 800°C (1470°F) × 8 hours, air cool Forming: Excellent cold and hot formability; suitable for complex sheet metal fabrications Machining: Good machinability; similar to other age-hardenable nickel alloys; carbide tooling recommended Welding: Excellent weldability using TIG and MIG methods; matching filler wire required; post-weld heat treatment (age hardening) restores properties
ApplicationsGas Turbine Engine Components: Combustion chambers, transition ducts, flame tubes, afterburner components, exhaust diffusers Aircraft Engine Fabrications: Sheet metal components requiring complex forming and welding Structural Components: Casings, rings, and support structures Heat-Treat Equipment: Fixtures and baskets for high-temperature processing High-Temperature Springs: Springs requiring good relaxation resistance at elevated temperatures Automotive Turbocharger Components: Housings and seals
