# Nickel & Cobalt Alloy Powders Source: https://powdchem.com/products/metal-alloy-powders/nickel-cobalt-alloys/ Page type: Material category Metals & alloy powders Nickel- and cobalt-base alloy powder inquiries for thermal, wear, corrosion and powder-processing applications. Use the grade and intended process as the starting point. [Browse 8 materials]() [Ask about supply]() [Image: Powder material specimens; appearance reference]() ## Choose a material ### Nickel alloys 625 and 718 Keep the alloy designation and composition limits explicit. Compare the particle window and production route for the intended AM, sintering or research process. #### Nickel alloy 625 powder nickel alloy 625 powder (Ni-Cr-Mo-Nb; grade-specific) [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Cr-Mo-Nb alloy / 625 #### Nickel alloy 718 powder nickel alloy 718 powder (Ni-Cr-Fe-Nb-Mo; grade-specific) [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Cr-Fe-Nb-Mo alloy / 718 ### Other nickel and coating alloy systems Ni-Cr, Ni-Al, Ni-Cr-B-Si and MCrAlY require distinct compositions. In MCrAlY, identify whether M is Ni, Co or Ni-Co. #### Nickel-chromium alloy powder nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) alloy powder [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Cr system #### Nickel-aluminum alloy powder nickel-aluminum (Ni-Al) alloy powder [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Al system #### Nickel-chromium-boron-silicon alloy powder nickel-chromium-boron-silicon (Ni-Cr-B-Si) alloy powder [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Cr-B-Si system #### MCrAlY alloy powder MCrAlY overlay / thermal-barrier bond-coat alloy powder (M is grade-specific) [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() M-Cr-Al-Y; M = Ni, Co or Ni-Co ### NiTi and Co-Cr-Mo Use the actual Ni/Ti ratio or Co-Cr-Mo grade. Keep the intended forming route and any application qualification separate from the alloy family name. #### Nickel-titanium alloy powder nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloy powder; exact composition/grade is specification-dependent [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Ni-Ti system #### Cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy powder cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy powder [Selection guide]() [Ask about this material]() Co-Cr-Mo system ## Material selection guide Start with the material identity and process, then check the details on the proposed datasheet. **Alloy identity** Specify 625, 718, Co-Cr-Mo, NiTi, MCrAlY or the intended chemistry with composition limits. These systems have different selection tasks. **Feedstock profile** Describe particle size, manufacturing route, morphology, oxygen and flow/density requirements. Identify pre-alloyed versus blended supply. **Application & evidence** Connect the grade to the intended AM, coating, brazing or sintering process. Ask for grade/lot data appropriate to that qualification. ## Before you choose **Is an alloy powder listing evidence of a finished coating's performance?** No. Feedstock, substrate preparation, equipment and process settings all affect the resulting part or coating. Keep powder acceptance separate from process qualification. **What does this directory cover?** Pure nickel and cobalt are elemental-metal entries. Thermal-spray cermets and coating services have separate requirements. ## What to include in your request A material name or reference datasheet is enough to start. Add any requirements you already know. - Grade and elemental acceptance limits - Powder route and pre-alloyed/blend status - Particle window, morphology and flow - Intended process and grade/lot documents ### Quantity, samples and documents Nike has no fixed minimum order. Tell us the quantity you need; we’ll check supplier pack sizes and any minimums. We’ll check the proposed grade, sample options, delivery timing and available batch documents. Include any essential COA, TDS or SDS requirements. [How we coordinate documents]() [Samples and testing]() [Send a material request]() ## Applications to explore.
