Plate stainless steel 263

wireaeronautical

Alloy 263 is a nickel-cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy designed specifically to combine very good strength properties with excellent fabrication characteristics in the annealed condition. The alloy is also age hardenable. While its strength at elevated temperatures is not quite as high as materials such as Waspaloy or alloy R-41, it is far easier to form and weld. Alloy 263 exhibits excellent intermediate temperature tensile ductility, and is not normally subject to strain age cracking problems common for gamma prime strengthened alloys.
