Alloy 105 is a wrought nickel–cobalt–chromium-base alloy strengthened by additions of molybdenum, aluminium and titanium, developed for high-strength, creep-resistant service at temperatures up to 950 °C (1740 °F). This datasheet presents the material within the American (ASTM / UNS) standard system.
It combines the high strength of the age-hardening nickel-base alloys with good creep resistance. Cobalt (~20%) and chromium (~15%) provide matrix strength and oxidation resistance; molybdenum gives solid-solution strengthening; and the relatively high aluminium (~4.7%) with titanium forms a substantial gamma-prime [Ni₃(Al,Ti)] phase during aging, providing high tensile and creep-rupture strength. The increased aluminium also improves oxidation resistance relative to earlier Nimonic grades.
It is produced by high-frequency air melting and casting, or — for more critical applications — by vacuum melting and electroslag refining. Typical applications include gas-turbine blades, discs, forgings and ring sections, and high-temperature bolts and fasteners. Strength is developed by a solution treatment followed by aging; the high aluminium-plus-titanium content makes the alloy more challenging to weld than lower-strength Nimonic grades.
Values per Special Metals official datasheet, solution-treated and aged condition.

Nominal composition per ASTM C565 (UNS N13021).
| Element | Symbol | Value | Role in Alloy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nickel | Ni | ~54 (Balance) | Austenitic FCC matrix; γ′-forming base |
| Cobalt | Co | ~20 | Matrix strength; high-temperature stability |
| Chromium | Cr | ~15 | Forms Cr₂O₃ scale; oxidation/corrosion resistance |
| Molybdenum | Mo | ~5 | Solid-solution strengthening |
| Aluminium | Al | ~4.7 | Primary γ′ former; oxidation resistance |

| Silicon | Si | ~1.0 max | Deoxidiser |
| Boron | B | ~0.005 | Grain-boundary strengthening |
| Zirconium | Zr | ~0.10 | Grain-boundary strengthening |
Note: the high combined Al+Ti (~6%) gives a large γ′ volume fraction for high strength, but makes the alloy more difficult to weld.
Typical room-temperature properties, solution-treated and aged condition.
| Property | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Ultimate tensile strength | ~1100–1200 MPa | Special Metals / fully heat-treated |
| 0.2% proof strength (yield) | ~750–830 MPa | Special Metals |
| Elongation at break | ~16–25 % | Special Metals |
| Hardness | ~340–400 HV | Typical |
The high γ′ volume fraction gives excellent tensile and creep-rupture strength retained to ~950 °C. Strength is developed by γ′ precipitation during aging. Values are typical; confirm against the mill test certificate for each delivery.
| Environment | Performance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Creep / stress-rupture (to 950 °C) | Outstanding | Co + high-γ′ strengthening; primary selling point |
| High-temperature oxidation | Very Good | Higher Al improves scale stability vs earlier Nimonic |
| High-cycle fatigue | Excellent | High fatigue strength |
| Thermal stability | Excellent | Stable γ′ for long-term high-temperature service |
| Chloride stress-corrosion cracking | Good | High nickel content |
| General corrosion | Good | Ni-Co-Cr base |
A precipitation-hardening alloy. Strength is developed by solution treatment followed by aging.
Solution Treatment Temperature: ~1149 °C (2100 °F), air cool
Aging Temperature: ~1075 °C/4 h/AC + ~850 °C/16 h/AC (typical multi-stage), air cool Purpose: precipitates a high volume fraction of γ′ [Ni₃(Al,Ti)] for maximum tensile and creep-rupture strength.
The high aluminium-plus-titanium content increases susceptibility to strain-age cracking, so heat-treatment and welding sequences must be controlled.
Weldable by GTAW, GMAW, SAW and SMAW, but the high aluminium-plus-titanium content makes the alloy markedly more susceptible to strain-age cracking than lower-strength Nimonic grades. Welding is done in the solution-treated condition, with age-hardening applied afterwards.
| Welding Process | Applicability | Filler / Consumable |
|---|---|---|
| GTAW / TIG · GMAW / MIG | Possible (solution-treated; care needed) | Matching Ni-Co-Cr-Mo filler (solution-treated base) |
| SAW / SMAW | Possible | Matching Ni-Co-Cr electrode |
Use a matching filler metal; if unavailable, a filler rich in Ni-Co-Cr-Mo may be used. Control restraint and pre/post-weld heat treatment to avoid cracking.
Machining Guidelines
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
