Straight from our DLX forges, Nimonic 90 is a nickel-chromium-cobalt beast – nickel clocks in at 54% min for that high-temp backbone, chromium 18-21% building a rock-solid oxide layer to fend off corrosion, and cobalt 15-21% boosting hot strength without brittleness. The hardening heroes? Titanium 2-3% and aluminum 1-2%, forming tiny precipitates that lock in power during aging. Iron's capped at 1.5%, carbon 0.13% max to skip carbide issues, with manganese, silicon under 1%, and traces of boron, zirconium for grain control. Density? 8.18 g/cm³ – hefty but perfect for stability.
Props are where it shines. Annealed, yield's around 310 MPa, tensile 620 MPa, elongation 30% for coiling ease. Age it – solution at 1080°C quench, then 700°C for 16 hours – and yield hits 750 MPa, tensile 1200 MPa, with 20% stretch. At 815°C, creep rupture holds for thousands of hours under 200 MPa stress, oxidation barely touches it up to 920°C thanks to that chromia-alumina shield. Thermal conductivity 11.5 W/m·K, expansion 13.0 x 10^-6 /°C – tuned to cut thermal fatigue in cycles. Corrosion? Excels in hot gases, sulfidation, and carburizing vibes, though coat for wet halides. Welds decent with preheat (TIG preferred), machines at 15-25 m/min with carbides, and draws into wires 0.05-5mm without snaps. We at DLX vacuum-melt for impurity-free runs, hitting aero certs every time – eco-wise, 90% recyclable, fitting green pushes with our scrap-heavy melts.
In essence, Nimonic 90 bridges extreme heat endurance with fab-friendly traits – and DLX fine-tunes it for your hottest challenges.

This wire thrives in hellish spots. Gas turbines? It's our star – blades, discs, and shafts spinning at 900°C, resisting creep so engines run longer, hotter. We've supplied coils for compressor rings that endure vibrations in power plants, slashing outages 30% for clients. Industrial heating? Furnace elements and radiant tubes glow red-hot without scaling, perfect for steel mills or glass kilns.
Aero loves it for exhaust valves and afterburner parts, handling thermal shocks in jets. Chemical plants wire it for catalyst supports in oxidizing reactors, while nuclear uses low-cobalt grades for tube hangers to cut activation. Auto? High-end racing bolts and springs that survive 800°C bursts. At DLX, we customize: fine gauges for sensors, thick for fasteners – annealed or aged ready. It drops weight 20% vs. steels, triples life in harsh cycles, amping efficiency from offshore platforms to space thrusters. If heat's your enemy, Nimonic 90 from DLX turns it into an ally.
