TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Technical Specifications
Detailed technical information including chemical composition, mechanical properties, standards and available dimensions.
Chemical Composition
ASTM B637 fixes 50.0–55.0% nickel, 17.0–21.0% chromium, 4.75–5.50% niobium plus tantalum and 0.65–1.15% titanium for UNS N07718, and this hex bar is quoted to the same window. Therefore, niobium and titanium are the elements that age-harden this hex bar.
Consequently, the full composition table on the Inconel 718 material page lists every element against its ASTM B637 limit for this hex bar.
Mechanical Properties
The minimum room-temperature values below apply to UNS N07718 bar in the solution-treated and precipitation-hardened condition. Transverse and heavy-section requirements are lower per AMS 5662; the applicable standard governs final acceptance.
| Condition | Product Size | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset | Elongation | Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solution Treated + Precipitation Hardened (AMS 5662 / AMS 5663) | Up to 254 mm (10 in.) | ≥185 ksi (1276 MPa) | ≥150 ksi (1034 MPa) | ≥12% | ≥331 HB |
- The standard double age holds the hex bar near 718 °C (1325 °F) for 8 hours, furnace cools to 621 °C (1150 °F), and holds 18 hours total before air cooling.
Physical Properties
Published references record a density near 8.19 g/cm³ and a melting range of 1260–1336 °C for this hex bar. Moreover, design work on this hex bar starts from the aged condition rather than the annealed one.
In addition, the physical properties table on the Inconel 718 material page carries the modulus, the thermal expansion and the remaining design values behind this hex bar.
Heat Treatment
Precipitation hardening is what separates Inconel 718 hex bar from solid-solution alloys. We supply the hex bar in the condition below that your application needs.
| Condition | Typical Treatment |
|---|---|
| Solution Treated | Held near 940–1010 °C (1725–1850 °F), then air cooled |
| Solution + Age Hardened | Two-step age near 718 °C (1325 °F) and 621 °C (1150 °F) for full strength |
| Stress Relieved | Available when specified for the application |
| Custom Condition | Heat treatment according to the agreed specification |
Standards
ASTM B637 is the principal UNS N07718 bar and rod document for this hex bar, issued by ASTM International. Moreover, ASME SB637 covers pressure equipment built from this hex bar and SAE AMS 5662 and 5663 cover aerospace procurement.
| Standard | Product or Application |
|---|---|
| ASTM B637 | Nickel alloy bar, rod and forgings for high-temperature service |
| ASME SB637 | ASME counterpart for pressure equipment |
| SAE AMS 5662 / 5663 | Nickel alloy 718 bar, forgings and rings |
Overall, the full standards list on the Inconel 718 material page adds the European designations and the remaining product documents for this hex bar.
Dimensions
Therefore, Inconel 718 hex bar dimensions depend on the manufacturing route, standard and order quantity. The table below lists typical supply ranges; please confirm your size in the inquiry.

Available hex bar dimensions depend on the manufacturing route, standard, material condition and order quantity. Please confirm your required hex bar size, section and length in the inquiry.
Surface Finishes
Therefore, the surface condition decides how this hex bar machines and how closely it holds size on a finishing cell. Specifically, we agree the finish on this Inconel 718 hex bar with your order.
| Surface Condition | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Hot Finished | As-hot-worked surface on this hex bar, for parts machined all over. |
| Peeled | Uniform diameter on this hex bar with a machined skin. |
| Centerless Ground | Tight diameter and straightness on this hex bar for aerospace shafting. |
