Inconel 783 is an oxidation-resistant, low-expansion nickel-cobalt-iron alloy with aluminium, chromium and niobium additions. This datasheet presents the material within the American (ASTM / ASME / UNS) standard system.
One of the newest high-performance superalloys developed by Special Metals (US Patent 5,478,417), Inconel 783 is a three-phase age-hardenable alloy in which the high aluminium content forms not only the gamma-prime (γ′) phase but also a beta (β, NiAl) aluminide phase in the austenitic matrix. This structure can be processed to resist both stress-accelerated grain-boundary oxidation (SAGBO) and general oxidation while providing a low coefficient of thermal expansion — about 20% lower than that of alloy 718 — and useful mechanical properties up to about 700 °C. It shows excellent resistance to oxidation in cyclic tests at temperatures up to and beyond 704 °C (1300 °F), and SAGBO resistance comparable to alloy 718. It is supplied in the solution-treated and aged condition.
Typical applications include aircraft gas-turbine containment and clearance-control components — rings, casings, shrouds and seals for compressors, turbines and exhaust systems.

Confirm against the mill test report. The alloy retains useful mechanical properties up to about 700 °C with a coefficient of thermal expansion about 20% below that of alloy 718.
| Environment | Performance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| High-temperature oxidation (cyclic) | Excellent | Aluminium-rich; to and beyond 704 °C |
| SAGBO (stress-accelerated GB oxidation) | Excellent | Comparable to alloy 718, better than 909 |
| Oxygen embrittlement | Very Good | Resistant; notch ductility retained |
| Aqueous / general | Good | Moderate chromium |
| Low thermal expansion | Excellent | ~20% lower than alloy 718 |
The high aluminium content provides excellent resistance to general oxidation and to stress-accelerated grain-boundary oxidation while maintaining a low coefficient of thermal expansion — the combination sought for gas-turbine clearance-control hardware.
A three-phase (γ′ + β) age-hardenable alloy; strengthened by solution treatment followed by beta ageing and precipitation ageing.
Solution Treatment Solution anneal at approximately 1121 °C (2050 °F) for about 1 hour and air cool.
Precipitation Hardening (Ageing) Beta-age at approximately 845 °C (1550 °F) for 4 hours and air cool, then age at approximately 720 °C (1325 °F) for 8 hours, furnace cool at about 55 °C/h to 620 °C (1150 °F), hold 8 hours and air cool — precipitating γ′ and the β (NiAl) phase.
Good weldability; the alloy can be formed, machined and welded using the conventional procedures for nickel alloys, in the solution-annealed condition with post-weld ageing.
| Welding Process | Applicability | Filler / Consumable |
|---|---|---|
| GTAW / TIG | Good | Matching alloy 783 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 treatment to develop properties.
