### **Product Data Sheet: Alloy 105 / Nimonic 105 Rod (UNS N07105)** **Overview** **Alloy 105** (commonly known as **Nimonic 105**) is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-chromium-cobalt superalloy specifically designed for high-temperature applications. In the form of **rod**, this material provides exceptional **creep strength, excellent oxidation resistance, and outstanding structural integrity** at temperatures up to 950°C (1740°F). Nimonic 105 rod is particularly suited for machining into critical rotating components where dimensional stability and mechanical reliability under extreme thermal and stress conditions are paramount. The rod form offers excellent machinability in the solution-treated condition while developing superior strength through subsequent aging treatment. --- #### **1.
