Unlocking Jet Engine Performance: The Power of GH2136 & Inconel 713C Alloys


1. Heat-Resistant Champions Inside the Engine: GH2136 & Inconel 713C

Jet engines operate in zones where temperatures soar above 950°C. That’s where GH2136 alloy and Inconel 713C alloy come into play.

GH2136: an iron-nickel precipitation-hardened alloy, especially known for its use in cast turbine components.

Inconel 713C: a cast nickel-based alloy, is ideal for turbine blades and vanes, where both strength and heat resistance are crucial.

The successful application of these two high-temperature alloys has effectively improved the safe operation ability of the engine in extreme environments.

2. Driving Efficiency: Structural Integrity & Corrosion Resistance

Efficiency in jet engines depends on material reliability under pressure and heat.
GH2136 alloy resists deformation even at high rotational speeds, thanks to its exceptional creep resistance.
Inconel 713C alloy delivers superior oxidation and corrosion resistance, crucial for components exposed to intense combustion.

These properties help extend engine life, reduce downtime, and maximize overall thermal performance-making GH2136 and Inconel 713C indispensable to modern aerospace engineering.
