Relationship between heat treatment temperature and mechanical strength of SPRON510

SPRON510 is an age-hardenable Co-Ni alloy that allows tensile strength, hardness, and elongation to be adjusted over a wide range through heat treatment.

Under our test conditions, aging treatment at approximately 600°C increased the tensile strength to approximately 2,900 MPa and the hardness to over 600 HV. At the same time, elongation remained largely unchanged up to around 600°C, demonstrating an excellent balance of high strength and ductility. At heat treatment temperatures above 700°C, elongation increased significantly, enabling optimization for applications requiring enhanced formability.

This flexibility allows engineers to select material properties that match both performance requirements and manufacturing processes, making SPRON510 suitable for a wide range of spring, precision component, and formed-part applications.

Under our fatigue test conditions using material with a 73% cold reduction, SPRON510 exhibited a fatigue limit of approximately 800 MPa in the non-aged condition at a fatigue life of 10 million cycles.

Following an aging treatment of 525°C for 2 hours, the fatigue limit increased to approximately 900 MPa, demonstrating improved resistance to cyclic loading.

These characteristics enable longer service life and higher allowable design stresses for springs, sensor components, and precision mechanical parts subjected to repeated loading.

SPRON510 temperature tensile testing Relationship between tensile strength and elongation at temperature

Under our test conditions, cold-worked SPRON510 maintained a tensile strength of approximately 2,200 MPa even at −196°C, demonstrating excellent mechanical performance in cryogenic environments. At elevated temperatures, high strength was retained up to around 700°C.

In contrast, annealed material exhibited relatively small changes in mechanical properties across a wide temperature range, providing a good balance of formability and stable performance.

As a result, SPRON510 can be optimized for applications ranging from high-strength springs and precision components to complex formed parts where manufacturability is a key requirement.

Exhibits tensile strength exceeding that of SUS631-H. As a strain-aging alloy, its strength can be further enhanced by optimizing the cold working rate and heat treatment conditions.

Shows minimal set (loss of elasticity) under both static and dynamic loading, enabling even micro springs to achieve high spring force. After 1 million cycles in a repeated fatigue test, the set ratio is approximately one-sixth that of piano wire.

Demonstrates superior corrosion resistance compared to SUS316L in tests using 48% hydrobromic acid (HBr) and 36% hydrochloric acid (HCl).

Exhibits extremely low magnetic permeability, with no significant variation even at higher levels of cold working.

Ideal for components used in measurement and analytical equipment where magnetic interference must be minimized.

SPRON510 combines four key advantages—high strength, excellent resilience, superior corrosion resistance, and non-magnetic properties—delivering a level of performance unattainable with conventional metal materials.
