Working with N06975 CD-ANN
Is N06975 easy to machine?
Treat as a gummy, rapidly work-hardening nickel alloy: rigid setups, positive-rake carbide or ceramic tooling, low speed / heavy positive feed, continuous cut and flood coolant to avoid glazing.
Can N06975 be welded?
Readily GTAW/GMAW/SMAW welded with matching or ERNiCrMo filler; keep interpass temperature low, heat input modest and surfaces clean — Ti stabilization usually allows use as-welded without PWHT.
Can N06975 be formed, bent or molded?
Cold forms well when annealed but hardens fast — allow extra power, generous bend radii and interstage anneals at ~1120 °C with rapid quench; hot work in the ~1150–1200 °C range.
What surface finishes work on N06975?
Pickle (HNO₃-HF) or blast-and-passivate after hot work/welding to restore the chromium oxide film; can be ground, mechanically polished or electropolished — anodizing is not applicable.

N06975 CD-ANN — frequently asked
What is N06975 CD-ANN used for?
N06975 CD-ANN is typically used for chemical processing equipment, acid handling components, corrosion-resistant piping and process vessel linings. In short: mixed acid service; ti-stabilized, weld as-welded; limited stock availability.
What is the yield strength of N06975 CD-ANN?
N06975 CD-ANN has a typical yield strength of 320 MPa (46.4 ksi) and a tensile strength of 700 MPa (102 ksi) — weaker than 69% of nickel alloy grades. Strength varies by condition: see the 5 listed tempers.
Is N06975 CD-ANN easy to machine?
Not especially — machinability is rated poor (20/100, better than 53% of nickel alloy grades). Treat as a gummy, rapidly work-hardening nickel alloy: rigid setups, positive-rake carbide or ceramic tooling, low speed / heavy positive feed, continuous cut and flood coolant to avoid glazing.
Can N06975 CD-ANN be welded?
Yes — weldability is rated very good (80/100). Readily GTAW/GMAW/SMAW welded with matching or ERNiCrMo filler; keep interpass temperature low, heat input modest and surfaces clean — Ti stabilization usually allows use as-welded without PWHT.
What surface finishes work on N06975 CD-ANN?
Pickle (HNO₃-HF) or blast-and-passivate after hot work/welding to restore the chromium oxide film; can be ground, mechanically polished or electropolished — anodizing is not applicable.
Can N06975 CD-ANN be formed, bent or molded?
Cold forms well when annealed but hardens fast — allow extra power, generous bend radii and interstage anneals at ~1120 °C with rapid quench; hot work in the ~1150–1200 °C range.
What is the maximum service temperature of N06975 CD-ANN?
N06975 CD-ANN is rated for continuous use to about 540°C (1,004 °F). Strength falls off well before that limit — check the elevated-temperature data for load-bearing parts.
What is the difference between N06975-ANN and N06975-CW?
ANN is the default condition — standard mill condition for plate, sheet, tube and bar — maximum corrosion resistance and ductility. CW: choose when higher strength and hardness are needed (fasteners, shafts, springs) and slight loss of ductility/corrosion margin is acceptable. Yield strength is 310 MPa in ANN versus 700 MPa in CW.
