UNS N10276 (2.4819, NiMo16Cr15W) Nickel Alloy
N10276 nickel is a nickel alloy formulated for primary forming into wrought products. Cited properties are appropriate for the annealed condition. 2.4819 is the EN numeric designation for this material. NiMo16Cr15W is the EN chemical designation. And N10276 is the UNS number.
This material is well established: the Further Reading section below cites a number of published standards, and that list is not necessarily exhaustive.
It has a moderately low heat capacity and a moderately high ductility among wrought nickels.
The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare N10276 nickel to: wrought nickels (top), all nickel alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
