Super Invar 32-5 Properties

Super Invar properties mechanical physical chemistry specificationsSuper lnvar 32-5 is a controlled expansion alloy with a chemistry of 32% nominal nickel. The substitution of 5.0% (maximum) cobalt for some of the nickel lowers the thermal expansion coefficient when compared to lnvar. Provided on this page as a general reference are tables containing Super lnvar 32-5 annealed average linear coefficient of thermal expansion, typical physical properties, mechanical properties, chemical composition, and specifications.
