Product Description

  • Nickel-Palladium alloys with 36-46 wt% palladium
  • Re-introduced to the Metglas product line after an multiple customer inquiries
  • Developed for turbine repair (aerospace industry) and polycrystalline diamond brazing onto cemented carbide substrates (down hole drilling applications)
  • Commercial alloy

New MBF1005 and MBF1011 Alloy Composition

MBF 1005 and 1011 were specifically design to have a brazing temperature below 900 C to reduce thermal stresses from the brazing processes and prevent polycrystalline diamond from graphitization. The low silicon content and lack of boron help reduce intermetallic particles in the braze joint and increase joint strength.

All MBF 1000 series alloys can be used to join 300 series stainless steel and nickel based super-alloys. Braze joints with these materials exhibit very high corrosion resistance and low erosion of base metal. Available as flexible 100% metallic foil having 18-50 um (0.7-2.0 mil) thickness and 50 mm (2″) width. Foil with wider may be supplied on a special request.

Recommended Applications:

Aircraft and power turbines, diamond tipped tools and drill bits.
