 2. Fabrication & Material Comparison

Udimet® L605 offers good fabricability with proper techniques, though its cobalt base requires specific processing parameters.

  • Solution Annealing: 1175-1230°C (2150-2250°F), rapid air or water quench .

  • Hot Working: 1037-1260°C (1900-2300°F); reheat as necessary .

  • Cold Working: Good formability in annealed condition; can be bent, deep drawn, and spun. Rapid work-hardening rate requires intermediate annealing for complex shapes .

  • Machining: Conventional techniques applicable; rigid setups and positive rake-angle tools recommended for optimal results .

  • Welding: Readily welded using GTAW (TIG), GMAW (MIG), and SMAW processes. Surface must be clean and free of contaminants .

  • Material Comparison:

    • vs. Haynes 188: Similar cobalt base; L605 has higher tungsten, no lanthanum; both excellent for high-temperature service .

    • vs. Inconel 625: Higher temperature capability; higher density; cobalt vs. nickel base .

    • vs. MP35N: L605 optimized for high-temperature service; MP35N for ultra-high-strength at lower temperatures .

    • vs. Stellite 6B: Wrought vs. cast form; L605 offers better fabricability for sheet metal components .


3. Applications

  • Aerospace & Gas Turbines: Combustors, afterburner rings, flame holders, turbine blades, vanes, spray bars, transition ducts

  • Industrial Furnaces: Muffles, radiant tubes, trays, baskets, heat-treating fixtures

  • Chemical Processing: Nitric acid production equipment, corrosion-resistant hardware

  • Medical Devices: Implantable devices, surgical instruments (biocompatible, non-magnetic)

  • General Engineering: Wear pads, high-temperature fasteners, springs
