HAYNES® alloy 242 is a promising new Ni-Mo-Cr alloy for high-strength, high-temperature aerospace fastener applications. Age-hardenable by virtue of a long-range-order strengthening mechanism, 242™ alloy is capable of developing very high strength, particularly in the cold-worked condition. A key difference from other fastener materials is its attendant good ductility. The relationship between the amount of cold work, aging temperature and time, and the properties of this alloy has not been previously explored in detail. In the present work, the nature of the interaction between cold work and aging will be examined, and the properties of the material relevant to aerospace fastener applications will be described.
