| P/M Low Carbon Astroloy is often the superalloy of choice when applications require greater ductility along with substantial strength levels. When HIP and heat treatment above the solvus temperature, the allow provides excellent high temperature stress rupture life. Applications for this alloy include high pressure turbine discs and containment rings for aircraft auxiliary power units (APU). Thousands of APU high pressure turbine discs made from Crucible Low Carbon Astroloy are in service worldwide on commercial and military airplanes. P/M Low Carbon Astroloy is available as near net shapes and standard mill forms consolidated by HIP or direct extrusion. As-HIP parts can range up to 46 inches (1.2 m) in diameter and weighs up to 16,000 lb (7,200 kg). A balance of high strength and ductility. Supersolvus processing for enhanced creep resistance and stress rupture life. Information provided by Crucible Compaction Metals. |
