Description: AFM 625 is used for welding nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy (625) to itself, to
steel, to other nickel-base alloys (601 & 800), for cladding steel with nickel-chromium-molybdenum weld metal, and for welding the clad side of joints in steel with nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy using the GTAW, GMAW, SAW, and PAW processes. AFM 625¡¯s outstanding strength and toughness in the temperature range cryogenic to 2000¡ÆF (1093¡ÆC) are derived primarily from the solid solution effects of the refractory metals, columbium and molybdenum, in a nickel-chromium matrix. AFM 625 has excellent fatigue strength and stress-corrosion cracking resistance to chloride ions.
