AMS 4675 specification covers a corrosion-resistant nickel-copper alloy (Alloy 400 / UNS N04400) in the form of bars, forgings, and forging stock. Alloy 400 is a popular nickel-copper alloy that is hardened via cold working, exhibiting high strength, excellent resistance to a variety of acidic and alkaline environments, and good ductility and thermal conductivity. Suitable for temperatures ranging from subzero to 538°C (1,000°F), Alloy 400 is widely used in marine engineering, chemical processing, hydrocarbon processing equipment, and heat exchangers .
1. Product Specifications & Physical DataAlloy 400 is available in bar, forging, and forging stock forms for marine, chemical, and industrial applications requiring excellent corrosion resistance over a wide temperature range. Available Forms: Bar (round, square, hex), forgings, forging stock, billet . Specifications: AMS 4675, ASTM B164, ASME SB-164, UNS N04400, Werkstoff Nr. 2.4360 .

2. Fabrication & Material ComparisonAnnealing: 843-871°C (1550-1600°F) × 10-30 minutes, water quench or air cool; relieves cold work stresses and restores ductility . Hot Working: 927-1177°C (1700-2150°F); reheat as necessary; avoid working below 871°C . Cold Working: Good formability; can be cold drawn, rolled, and forged; work-hardening rate moderate . Machining: Good machinability; requires sharp tools, positive feeds, and adequate lubrication . Welding: Excellent weldability using GTAW (TIG), GMAW (MIG), and resistance welding; matching filler metal (ERNiCu-7) recommended.
