From raw material melting to final inspection, every step is rigorously documented to ensure full traceability of the final product. Each Alloy 230 forged bar passed stringent mechanical and chemical testing before release, guaranteeing compliance with the most demanding customer specifications.
Why Alloy 230?
Alloy 230 (UNS N06230, W.Nr. 2.4733) is a nickel-chromium-tungsten-molybdenum superalloy that delivers an exceptional combination of high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance up to 2100°F (1149°C), outstanding nitriding resistance, and excellent long-term thermal stability. It has lower thermal expansion characteristics than most high-temperature alloys and resists grain coarsening even with prolonged high-temperature exposure.
As a solid-solution-strengthened material, Alloy 230 combines excellent high-temperature strength with good fabricability at room temperature. It is one of the most nitriding-resistant alloys available and can be effectively utilized in service temperatures up to 2100°F.

| Carbon (C) | 0.05 – 0.15 |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.30 – 1.00 |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.25 – 0.75 |
| Aluminum (Al) | 0.20 – 0.50 |
| Lanthanum (La) | 0.005 – 0.05 |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.030 max |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.015 max |
| Boron (B) | 0.015 max |
| Titanium (Ti) | 0.10 max |
| Copper (Cu) | 0.50 max |
Physical Properties of Alloy 230
Mechanical Properties of Alloy 230 – Solution Annealed Condition (ASTM B564)
Alloy 230 forged bar in the solution annealed condition exhibits the following typical mechanical properties at room temperature:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Ultimate Tensile Strength | 110 KSI min (760 MPa min) |
| Yield Strength (0.2% offset) | 45 KSI min (310 MPa min) |
| Elongation | 40% min |
| Hardness (HB) | 241 max |
These properties make Alloy 230 the material of choice for components operating in extreme thermal and mechanical environments.
