| Fatigue & Creep Resistance |
GBE® is a thermomechanical bulk metal processing technique that is used to create components that exhibit exceptional
high temperature fatigue-, creep-, and corrosion-resistance. |
| |
 |
| Performance Benefits |
GBE® process improves Ni Super Alloys by:
• |
Increasing the resistance to stress corrosion cracking
and intergranular corrosion
|
|
|
• |
Improving resistance to fatigue induced surface cracks |
|
|
• |
Greatly increasing high temperature creep resistance |
|
|
• |
Adding greater sulfidation resistance |
|
|
• |
Improving weldability |
|
|
• |
No new alloy qualification required |
|
|
• |
In many cases, exisitng manufacturing processes, can be
used or modified to achieve GBE® structures |
