L-605™ Kobaltna zlitina na osnovi kroma, volframa in niklja
excellent corrosion alloy, oxidation resistance alloy, alloys for medical stents - L-605™ is a nonmagnetic cobalt-based chromium-tungstennickel alloy that has excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance, and high strength at both room and elevated temperatures. Through work hardening, high strength levels can be obtained. L-605™ has a minimal heat treatment response, but can be used in the cold worked and aged condition. Applications include medical implant devices, springs, valves, and engine components for the aerospace industry. As a result of its high tungsten content, L-605TM is radiopaque, which is beneficial for implant medical devices, such as stents.
Because of the alloy’s high work hardening rate, only minimal reductions can be taken before solution annealing will be required. L-605TM is very resistant to oxidation and scaling at elevated temperatures, and is nonmagnetic in all conditions. L-605™ is produced by vacuum induction melting followed by electroslag remelting (VIM-ESR), and as such, has a low nonmetallic inclusion level.
