Precision Investment Casting of Nickel Based Alloys

Desirable for their corrosion and heat resistance, nickel-based castings are used in hundreds of applications where operating temperatures or chemicals would threaten other metals. Bescast utilizes our exceptional design and engineering capabilities to create nickel-based metal castings that are perfect for these kinds of operations. 

Nickel-Based Alloy Castings

Our current lineup of nickel-based alloys includes the highly popular Hastelloy X (HastX). A wrought nickel-based alloy, HastX has exceptional high-temperature strength and resistance to oxidation. Like all nickel-based castings, HastX offers exceptional thermal operating ranges and forming capabilities. Our current list of available nickel-based alloys includes:

  • HastX
  • IN100
  • IN625
  • IN713
  • IN718
  • IN738
  • IN792
  • MM247
  • R77
  • R80
  • R125
  • U500

Applications for Nickel-Based Metal Castings

While nickel-based metal castings are used by dozens of different industries, they find their home in a handful of applications that utilize their heat resistance effectively. Bescast specializes in applied nickel-based castings for the aerospace and energy sectors. We design and engineer products and prototypes for clients that include nickel-based metal castings for the following components:

 

  • Turbine Blades and Vanes
  • Structural Castings
  • Open and Closed-Face Impellers

 

  • Heat Exchangers
  • Exhaust Systems
  • Furnaces

Certified Nickel-Based Castings

Our nickel-based alloy castings utilize the same production and design standards for quality and precision as our other investment castings. As an ISO 9002 certified manufacturer of investment castings, our products meet or exceed a high level of quality standards. Bescast is also NADCAP certified for the development and execution of nickel-based metal castings for the aerospace and defense industries.

 

Our capabilities allow us to step in and provide consultation and production services at any stage of your product development cycle. Utilizing ProCAST software and Finite Element Analysis (FEA), we can simulate the casting process with a high degree of accuracy. Bescast can provide proofs of concept and prototyping of your nickel-based castings before moving into full production utilizing our massive manufacturing facility.
