GH4080A (GH80A) Nickel-Based Alloy

GH4080A (also designated GH80A) is a Chinese Ni-Cr base precipitation-hardened wrought superalloy, the domestic equivalent of Nimonic 80A (UK). Strengthened by gamma-prime precipitation through aluminium and titanium additions, with boron and cerium used to strengthen grain boundaries, it offers high tensile and creep-rupture strength, good oxidation resistance and stable microstructure for long-term service at 700–800 °C.

Overview

  • Material designation: GH4080A (GH80A)
  • Type: Ni-Cr base precipitation-hardened wrought superalloy
  • Close equivalent: Nimonic 80A (UK)
  • Standards: GB/T 14992, HB 5286, HB 6703
  • Service temperature: long-term 700–800 °C; short-term up to 850 °C
  • Available forms: Hot-rolled and forged bars, cold-rolled sheet, wire and rings

High tensile and rupture strength at 700–800 °C. Actual values may vary with condition and governing standard.

Key Features

  • Good oxidation resistance at 700–800 °C;
  • Gamma-prime (γ′) precipitation strengthening via Al + Ti additions;
  • Boron and cerium additions strengthen grain boundaries;
  • Good comprehensive properties with stable microstructure at elevated temperature.

Melting Process

  • Vacuum induction melting + electroslag remelting (VIM + ESR), or vacuum induction melting + vacuum arc remelting (VIM + VAR).

Fabrication & Welding

  • Hot working: heating at 1100–1150 °C; finish-forging temperature not below 950 °C.
  • Welding: good weldability by GTAW (TIG), electron-beam welding and similar processes.

Heat Treatment

  • Hot-rolled / forged bars: 1080–1100 °C × 2 h / AC + 700–720 °C × 16 h / AC;
  • Cold-rolled sheet: 1050–1080 °C × (5–15) min / AC + 700–720 °C × 16 h / AC.

Typical Applications

  • Aero-engine turbine blades, turbine discs and combustors;
  • Critical components of industrial gas turbines and steam turbines;
  • Other high-temperature rotating and static parts in the 700–800 °C range.
