What is AMS 5596?
AMS 5596 is an aerospace material specification for nickel alloy 718 (Inconel 718) established by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is typically supplied in the form of sheets, strips, and plates, and is solution-treated to facilitate processing.
What is AMS 5596 Inconel 718 material?
AMS 5596 Inconel 718 is a high-strength, precipitation-hardened nickel-chromium alloy (UNS N07718) that offers exceptional performance at extreme temperatures (from cryogenic to 1300°F/700°C), excellent corrosion resistance, and superior weldability. It is ideally suited for aerospace applications (jet engines, rockets) and industrial components requiring high tensile strength, creep resistance, and ease of fabrication. It is available in plate, sheet, and strip forms.

What is the difference between AMS 5662 and 5596?
The main difference lies in the product form and heat treatment method; AMS 5662 specifies Inconel 718 alloy in the solution-annealed (softest) condition for bars/forgings, while AMS 5596 covers the same alloy in sheet/plate form, which is also typically annealed (AMS 5596), aiming for higher strength through subsequent age hardening treatment. AMS 5662 applies to bars/forgings, and AMS 5596 applies to sheets/plates.
