Description

Alloy MA18 is used: for the manufacture of semi-finished products (sheets, plates, bars, rods, profiles, strips, tubes, wire, stampings and forgings) by hot deformation, as well as ingots and slabs intended for the production of lightly loaded parts operating at temperatures from -253 °C to +60 °C when you want high stiffness and low weight.
