Nimonic PE11 is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-iron-chromium superalloy. This datasheet presents the material within the American (ASTM / ASME / UNS) standard system.
A nickel-iron-chromium alloy containing titanium and aluminium for precipitation hardening and molybdenum for solid-solution strengthening, Nimonic PE11 develops its strength from γ′ (Ni₃(Ti,Al)) precipitates formed during ageing, distributed uniformly within an austenitic matrix. It offers high yield strength and excellent creep and stress-rupture resistance at temperatures to about 600 °C (1110 °F), with good corrosion resistance in the atmospheres typical of jet-engine operation. Its substantial iron content (the balance element) lowers raw-material cost relative to fully nickel-based grades and gives good forging characteristics. It is used in the solution-treated, stabilised and aged condition.
Typical applications include gas-turbine engine discs, shafts, rings, casings and seals, and other highly stressed components operating to about 600 °C.

Corrosion and oxidation resistance is good for its class; the alloy is selected primarily for its high yield strength and creep resistance to about 600 °C combined with good forgeability.
A γ′ precipitation-hardenable superalloy; strengthened by solution treatment, stabilisation and ageing.
Solution Treatment Solution treat at approximately 1080–1107 °C (1975–2025 °F) for about 2 hours and air cool.
Precipitation Hardening (Ageing) Apply a stabilisation treatment at approximately 775–800 °C (1425–1475 °F) for 2–4 hours and air cool, followed by precipitation ageing at approximately 720–745 °C (1325–1375 °F) for about 24 hours and cool — precipitating γ′ (Ni₃(Ti,Al)).
Weldable by inert-gas processes; welding is performed in the solution-annealed condition with post-weld heat treatment and ageing. As a titanium-bearing γ′ alloy, care is taken to avoid strain-age cracking.
| Welding Process | Applicability | Filler / Consumable |
