Invar 36 /Nilo 36 / Alloy 36 (ASTM F1684)
Technical Data Sheet
Alloy 36 (NILO 36, INVAR 36) is a Nickel-Iron, low expansion alloy which contains 36% Nickel. Invar 36 has a low coefficient of expansion from cryogenic temperatures to about +500°F (260°C). Invar 36 also retains good strength and toughness at cryogenic temperatures. Common applications include tooling for aerospace composites, standards of length, measuring devices, thermostat rods, laser components and tanks and piping for the storage and transportation of liquefied gases.
