Description

Alloy A-286 is designed for applications requiring high strength and good corrosion resistance at temperatures up to 1300 °F(704 °C). This alloy offers high ductility in notched sections. In fact, the notched rupture strength of alloy A-286 is superior to many other commercial alloys with comparable high temperature properties. An advantage of this alloy is that it can be precipitation hardened and strengthened by heat treatments. This makes possible a high degree of uniformity in developing maximum strength, which can be duplicated application after application.


Applications

Alloy A-286 has been used in jet engines,superchargers and various high temperature applications such as turbine wheels and blades,frames,casings,afterburner parts and fasteners.


Corrosion Resistance

The corrosion resistance of this alloy is excellent up to 1300 °F(704 °C) against many atmospheres encountered in jet engine service. Up to 1800 °F(982 °C), the oxidation resistance of alloy A-286 is equivalent to that of Type 310 stainless.

Workability

Hot Working/Forging
Alloy A-286 is rolled or forged from temperature of 1900/2050 °F(1038/1121 °C) using a short soaking period. It is slightly more resistance to deformation than the austentitic stainless steels during hot working. Do not forge below 1700 °F(927 °C).

Cold Working
In the solution treated condition,alloy A-286 can be satisfactorily cold drawn and formed. It is somewhat stiffer than stainless steels such as Types 316 and 310,and it work hardens rapidly.

Machinability
In general, the high temperature alloys are more difficult to machine than stainless steels. However, the iron-base alloy group, of which alloy A-286 is a member, is easier to machine than the nickel-based precipitation-hardening grades such as alloy 718 or cobalt-bearing grades such as alloy 41. Carbide insert tools are commonly used where possible.
