AMS 5592 is a specification for Incoloy 330, a nickel-iron-chromium alloy, in the Plate and Sheet form for use in industrial industries.
Incoloy 330 Plate (UNS N08330; W. Nr. 1.4886) has a solid solution composition and is not hardenable by heat treatment. Its high nickel and chromium provide good resistance to oxidation and carburization. Its oxidation resistance is enhanced by the silicon content. The alloy’s strength and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures make it a useful material for industrial heating furnaces; for muffles, retorts, conveyor systems, baskets and boxes, and various fixtures.
