Some of the most advanced industrial applications today—especially those in the aerospace, automotive, and oil and gas industries—rely on alloy materials with exceptional strength and technical performance. Among these materials are two superalloys known as Inconel 718 and Inconel 625. These Inconel... Continue Reading

Hastelloy® metals and alloys are known for their superior ability to withstand high temperatures and corrosion. Haynes International first developed these types of superalloys, following the invention of stainless steel in 1913. Stainless steel and Hastelloy alloys both offer incredible strength an...

In 1901, Robert Crooks Stanley invented the first Monel alloy by combining nickel and copper. Since then, Monel alloys have been used for a wide range of purposes including offshore and marine applications. With offshore oil and gas production progressively moving into deeper parts of the ocean, the... Continue Reading

“If stainless, nickel, and cobalt alloys don’t meet your performance requirements, chances are titanium will.” Ron Brucker, a senior metallurgist here at Ulbrich once said. The truth is that Titanium can withstand corrosive elements that are no match for the other alloys, and with the strength of st... Continue Reading

Inconel® alloys are one of the most versatile metals around. Their applications cut across a wide range of industries thanks to their high performance and superior properties. They are a natural choice within the automotive, aerospace, marine, and oil and gas industries since they are specificall... Continue Reading
