Nickel Alloy Inconel X-750-ANN vs Inconel X-750 Spring
Nickel Alloy · Inconel X-750 temper comparison
Inconel X-750-ANN and Inconel X-750 Spring are two conditions of the same nickel alloy grade, Inconel X-750: ANN (annealed) versus Spring (spring hard). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Inconel X-750 Spring is the stronger of the two: yield strength 1,170 MPa (170 ksi) against 350 MPa (50.8 ksi) for Inconel X-750-ANN, about 3.3 times as much; tensile strength follows at 1,380 MPa (200 ksi) vs 830 MPa (120 ksi). In exchange, Inconel X-750-ANN is the more ductile: elongation 45% versus 6% for Inconel X-750 Spring, and Inconel X-750 Spring is harder (390 HB vs 180 HB). Inconel X-750-ANN runs hotter in service (870°C vs 540°C continuous). On the shop floor, Inconel X-750-ANN machines more easily (poor vs not recommended) and Inconel X-750-ANN welds better (good vs poor).

Inconel X-750-ANN vs Inconel X-750 Spring: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all nickel alloy grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.

Inconel X-750-ANN vs Inconel X-750 Spring — frequently asked
Is Inconel X-750 Spring stronger than Inconel X-750-ANN?
Yes. Inconel X-750 Spring has a typical yield strength of 1,170 MPa (170 ksi) against 350 MPa (50.8 ksi) for Inconel X-750-ANN — about 3.3 times as much. Tensile strength is 1,380 MPa (200 ksi) vs 830 MPa (120 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, ANN or Spring?
STA is the default Inconel X-750 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither ANN nor Spring). The other condition is available on request or by drawing note — specify it in the material field or the part notes and the quote is priced for it.
Which is easier to machine, Inconel X-750-ANN or Inconel X-750 Spring?
Inconel X-750-ANN. Its machinability rates poor (22/100) against not recommended (12/100) for Inconel X-750 Spring; for welding the order is Inconel X-750-ANN first (good, 60/100) then Inconel X-750 Spring (poor, 25/100).
