NiCr19Fe19Nb5Mo3 is the EN symbol designation for a precipitation-hardenable nickel-chromium-iron superalloy, one of the most widely used superalloys in the world. This datasheet presents the material within the EN symbol designation system.
Originally an age-hardenable derivative of alloy 625, NiCr19Fe19Nb5Mo3 derives its outstanding strength from the precipitation of gamma-prime (γ′, Ni₃(Al,Ti)) and gamma-double-prime (γ″, Ni₃Nb) phases during ageing, with niobium the key strengthening addition. It combines high tensile, fatigue, creep and stress-rupture strength up to about 700 °C with good oxidation resistance, excellent cryogenic toughness, and good weldability and forgeability. It is non-magnetic, is readily formed in both cold and hot conditions, and is used in the solution-treated and aged condition.
Typical applications include gas-turbine discs, blades and casings, aero- and rocket-engine components, oil-and-gas equipment for corrosive and sour environments, fasteners and cryogenic hardware.

Corrosion and oxidation resistance is good for its class; the alloy is selected primarily for its exceptional combination of high strength, fatigue and creep resistance with adequate corrosion resistance.
A precipitation-hardenable superalloy; strengthened by solution treatment followed by double ageing.
Solution Treatment Solution anneal at approximately 950–1010 °C and cool (air or faster). A higher solution temperature (~1040–1065 °C) is used where creep-rupture performance is prioritised.
Precipitation Hardening (Ageing) Age in two steps — approximately 720 °C / 8 h, furnace cool to about 620 °C, hold ~8 h, air cool — precipitating γ′ (Ni₃(Al,Ti)) and γ″ (Ni₃Nb).
Good weldability, notably better than many γ′-strengthened superalloys owing to the sluggish γ″ ageing response. Welding is done in the solution-annealed condition with post-weld heat treatment.
| Welding Process | Applicability | Filler / Consumable |
|---|---|---|
| GTAW / TIG | Good | Matching alloy 718 filler |
| GMAW / MIG | Good | Matching filler |
| EBW / laser | Good | Autogenous or matching filler |
Weld in the solution-annealed condition; apply post-weld solution and ageing to develop properties.
Machining Guidelines
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Preferred condition | Solution-annealed for machining, then age |
| Machinability | Difficult; rigid setups, carbide tooling, slow speeds |
| Coolant | Ample coolant |
Forming Processes
| Process | Notes |
|---|---|
| Cold forming | In the annealed condition; work-hardens rapidly |
| Hot forming | Readily forged; solution and age afterward |
| Industry | Typical Components | Key Requirements |
