L-605 AMS 5759

L-605 AMS 5759 available at Rockwell Industries is a cobalt-chromium-tungsten-nickel alloy.  It has good formability, high strength to 1500°F, and good oxidation resistance to 2000°F.  L605 is non-magnetic and has excellent resistance to hot and corrosive atmospheres.  It is especially resistant to carburizing atmospheres up to 1600ºF.  The high chromium content makes it resistant to corrosion in a wide range of environments such as wet chlorine, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid.  For maximum ductility, fabricated components should be annealed 2150-2250°F followed by a rapid cooling.
