Inconel 713C Alloy Tube 2.4670 for Turbine Blade & Guide Vane

Inconel 713C is a precipitation-hardened nickel-based superalloy widely used in gas turbine hot-section components. It is especially valued for its ability to maintain mechanical integrity under long-term thermal exposure and stress.

At Dlx Alloy, we manufacture tubes using controlled vacuum melting, precision forming, and heat treatment processes. This ensures uniform chemical composition, stable microstructure, and excellent dimensional accuracy. Our alloy tubes are suitable for turbine blade cooling systems, guide vane structures, and other high-temperature structural components.

Material Characteristics

The performance of Inconel 713C comes from its carefully balanced alloying elements:

• Nickel (Ni): Provides the base structure with high-temperature stability

• Chromium (Cr): Enhances oxidation resistance in hot gas environments

• Aluminum (Al): Forms a protective oxide layer on the surface

• Molybdenum (Mo): Improves strength at elevated temperatures

• Niobium (Nb): Strengthens the alloy through precipitation hardening

Key material advantages include:

• Excellent creep resistance under long-term thermal stress

• High tensile strength at temperatures up to 980°C

• Strong oxidation and hot corrosion resistance

• Good stability under thermal cycling conditions
