Abstract

A high strength nickel-base alloy consisting essentially of, by weight percent, 50 to 60 nickel, 19 to 23 chromium, 18 to 22 iron, 3 to 4.4 aluminum, 0 to 0.4 titanium, 0.05 to 0.5 carbon, 0 to 0.1 cerium, 0 to 0.3 yttrium, 0.002 to 0.4 total cerium plus yttrium, 0.0005 to 0.4 zirconium, 0 to 2 niobium, 0 to 2 manganese, 0 to 1.5 silicon, 0 to 0.1 nitrogen, 0 to 0.5 calcium and magnesium, 0 to 0.1 boron and incidental impurities. The alloy forms 1 to 5 mole percent Cr.sub.7 C.sub.3 after 24 hours at a temperature between 950 and 1150.degree. C. for high temperature strength.
