  • Welding high-strength nickel base superalloys
    Patent number: 5374319
    Abstract: A process is provided for welding a gamma-prime precipitation-strengthened nickel base superalloy by heating the weld area and adjacent region to a ductile temperature, welding while maintaining the entire weld area and adjacent region at the ductile temperature and holding the weldment, weld area and adjacent region at the ductile temperature until the entire weld has solidified. The ductile temperature is above the aging temperature but below the incipient melting temperature of the superalloy.
    Type: Grant
