AMS 5706 Bar
AMS 5706 is a specification for a nickel-based alloy Waspalloy. It is known for its ability to deliver strength and stability in demanding conditions. This make it a trusted choice for applications that must perform under extreme heat and stress. Parag Metals is a leading supplier of Waspalloy Round Bar, offering dependable solutions for industries requiring precision and durability.
In modern engineering, AMS 5706 plays an important role in aerospace, marine, and other high-performance fields. It is supplied in forgings, bars, and rings making it versatile for many designs. The material is often chosen for fasteners, flanges, and rings that must hold their strength at temperatures up to 1500°F (816°C). Major uses include aerospace fasteners, compressor discs, shafts, spacers, turbine cases, and highly stressed turbine engine parts such as blades, vanes, and rings. These applications show its ability to perform where both strength and stability are critical.

The benefits of AMS 5706 are seen in its resistance to both heat and corrosion. It can withstand oxidation up to 1750°F (954°C), making it reliable in extreme environments. Its performance is enhanced through treatment such as solution heat treatment at 1825-1895°F, stabilization, and age hardening. This help achieve a hardness range of 33–44 Rockwell C. It also offer good workability, which support precision machining and long service life. These qualities make Waspalloy Round Bar a material of choice when performance cannot be compromised.

What is the certified hardness range for AMS 5706 Round Bar?
AMS 5706 Round Bars, after completing the full precipitation ageing heat treatment cycle, reach a Rockwell C hardness (HRC) of 33 to 44. This range ensures the material has high strength while keeping enough toughness for machining and in-service performance. The exact value depends on the grade and specific ageing cycle used, but all bars meet the certified range.
How does the solution treatment temperature for AMS 5706 differ from that of AMS 5707, and what does it mean for performance?
The solution treatment for AMS 5706 is carried out between 1825 °F and 1900 °F. AMS 5707, by comparison, requires a higher solution temperature. The lower temperature for AMS 5706 produces a slightly lower peak tensile strength than AMS 5707 but improves toughness and machinability. This balance makes AMS 5706 ideal for parts that need both strength and workability, like turbine shafts and compressor components.
Is AMS 5706 supplied fully aged or only solution heat-treated?
AMS 5706 Round Bars come in the solution heat-treated state, not fully aged. This means that they are ready to be hardened after machining. The last step, precipitation aging, can then bring the hardness to the certified 33–44 HRC range. This gives you precise control over the final mechanical properties and makes sure the bar can handle tough high-temperature jobs.
What are the available diameters and lead times for custom shapes?
AMS 5706 Round Bars come in a variety of diameters from stock. While exact dimensions depend on inventory, standard diameters are typically available for immediate use. For custom forged shapes such as compressor discs or turbine wheels, additional lead time is required. The time depends on the size, complexity, and heat treatment process needed for the part. Customers are encouraged to contact the supplier for exact availability and delivery schedules.
What is the maximum continuous service temperature for AMS 5706 parts?
AMS 5706 keeps its strength at high temperatures up to about 1500 °F (816 °C). This means that it can be used in turbine hardware, engine parts and other important high-temperature applications that are exposed to very high heat. It is strong, tough, and resistant to corrosion, which makes it reliable in these harsh environments for a long time.
