Frequently Asked Questions

What is Udimet 700?

Udimet 700 (UNS N07700) is one of the strongest wrought γ′-strengthened Ni-Cr-Co superalloys, with high aluminium/titanium for maximum precipitate strengthening and good oxidation resistance to about 800 °C. It is used where the highest turbine hot-section strength is needed.

What are Udimet 700 mechanical properties?

Aged: ≈ 1250 MPa tensile, ≈ 900 MPa yield, 12 % elongation, 36–46 HRC, with creep-rupture strength near 300 MPa at 760 °C / 1000 h.

Is Udimet 700 weldable?

Yes for repair, with matching/overalloyed fillers under a strict qualified procedure (solution treat + age), per turbine OEM specs. It is not a general fabrication alloy.

Where is Udimet 700 used?

Gas-turbine blades and vanes, aero-engine high-strength rotating parts, industrial turbine hot-section components and high-temperature bolting.

Udimet 700 vs 500/520/630 – which to choose?

700 is the highest-strength, highest-temperature grade of the family (to ~800 °C); 500/520/630 cover slightly lower-temperature disc/blade duties with more ductility.

Which standards cover Udimet 700?

Bars/forgings referenced under AMS 5705, with most production governed by OEM turbine specifications.
