This specification covers a corrosion and heat-resistant, vacuum melted, nickel alloy in the formof investment castings.These castings have been used typically for structural parts requiring high strength up to1600 °F (871 °C) and oxidation and corrosion resistance up to 1800 °F (982 °C), butusage is not limited to such applications.Castings conforming to this specification are classified as follows:Class 1 - Trace element limits conforming to AMS 2280, Class 1 (AMS 2280-1)Class 2 - Trace element limits conforming to AMS 2280, Class 2 (AMS 2280-2)Class 3 - Trace element limits do not apply.Castings shall conform to Class 1 unless Class 2 or Class 3 is specified by purchaser.
