Master Alloys

MAR-M247

MAR-M 247 is a nickel-base gamma-prime strengthened casting superalloy with a very high volume fraction of gamma-prime phase, roughly 65 to 70 percent, together with a large tungsten addition for solid-solution strengthening and tantalum for MC carbide stability. Hf is added to improve grain-boundary ductility and coating adherence. The alloy is normally supplied as master alloy bar for remelting in a vacuum induction furnace, and as net-shape cast rod for single-crystal or directionally solidified castings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MAR-M247?

MAR-M247 (MAR-M 247, MAR247, UNS R30747, Cast nickel-base superalloy) is a master alloys grade. MAR-M 247 is a nickel-base gamma-prime strengthened casting superalloy with a very high volume fraction of gamma-prime phase, roughly 65 to 70 percent, together with a large tungsten addition for solid-solution strengthening and tantalum for MC carbide stability. Hf is added to improve grain-boundary ductility and coating adherence. The alloy is normally supplied as master alloy bar for remelting in a vacuum inductio

What forms of MAR-M247 do you supply?

ROBAN supplies MAR-M247 as master alloy bar, as-cast, vacuum induction melted, master alloy ingot and button, horizontally vacuum cast bar, remelted casting rod for investment casting, cut to the length you need and packed for remelting.

Do you supply material certificates for MAR-M247?

Yes. Every order ships with a mill test report covering the actual heat analysis of the melt, together with the heat number and the melt route. 3.2 documentation is available where the contract requires it.

What is the lead time for MAR-M247?

Master alloy is made to order rather than held in stock. The usual lead time is 20 to 40 working days depending on the grade, the melt route and the quantity. Send us your specification for a firm date.

Can you supply MAR-M247 in a specific size?

Yes. State the diameter, the length and the condition you need. Bar is normally supplied as-cast and cut to your length, and ingot is supplied as button or cube to match your melting equipment.
