Luois Metals, based in Houston, USA, is a reputable manufacturer and supplier of high-quality A286 Bars and Rods, specifically crafted for tough applications that demand exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance at high temperatures. A286 (UNS S66286) is a superalloy made from iron, nickel, and chromium, known for its ability to be precipitation-hardened while maintaining strength and ductility even at temperatures up to 700°C (1300°F). Luois Metals provides A286 bars and rods in a variety of diameters and conditions, including solution-annealed and age-hardened options, adhering to standards like AMS 5731, AMS 5732, and ASTM A453. This alloy is perfect for aerospace, automotive, turbine engines, and power generation systems.
A286 Bars and Rods are made up of about 25% nickel, 15% chromium, and 1.2% molybdenum, with added titanium, vanadium, and aluminum to facilitate precipitation hardening. This alloy can achieve a yield strength of 585–690 MPa and a tensile strength of up to 895 MPa after aging, all while maintaining good elongation and toughness at elevated temperatures. A286 is known for its excellent resistance to oxidation, sulfidation, and stress corrosion cracking, along with impressive creep resistance. Plus, it’s easy to weld and machine, making it a great choice for complex, high-load components in high-heat environments.
