Production Capabilities and Value Added Services

HPA is engineering the future through mechanically strengthened properties.

High Performance Alloys (HPA) is proud that our services continually expand to offer you the best options in high-performing alloys. We are now offering hex bar conversions in-house! HPA offers open die forging, cold worked radial forging, draw bench, size conversions, machining, and other value added services. Please see our Equipment List document for more info on our capabilities to meet your needs. In an industry with long lead times, we strive to offer you the quickest conversion option for your high-performing alloys.

New Level 6 High Strength option!
Level 6 is noted by its minimum ultimate tensile strength of 230 Ksi. By cold working our materials, we retain better elongation values through grain structure improvements that reduce the brittleness often associated with high strength materials. While our level 6 is primarily offered for alloys N50 and N60, we also cold work alloy C276, and are willing to try research for your high-performing alloy requirements.

For more information, check out our popular high strength options N60 HS and N50 HS.
Alloy 2507 Overstock
We have 'as forged' duplex alloy 2507 material from 3-8" diameter ready to sell at discount or convert to size.

Forging Services

High Performance Alloys (HPA) has many forging services that allow for rapid delivery of high performing, quality materials. HPA is pioneering cold work in the modern alloy industry. At HPA, we have a long track record of innovation. From our open die 750 ton Lake Erie Forge Press to our radial forge GFM®, and Rolling Mill, HPA has many options to help you acquire the size and mechanical properties for your materials' requirements. Our latest wire draw acquisition allows us to provide high strength wire sizes. Our radial forge GFM® process puts cold work in the center of the bar, and by the time it processes through the wire draw, the cold work is nearly completely throughout the material resulting in a near perfect grain structure. Give us a call at 1-800-472-5569, and ask what we can make for you!

Cutting Options

High Performance Alloys (HPA) has a wide assortment of cutting options to meet many of your requirements. From super tight tolerances down to a couple hairs width, a couple thou range of +/-0.005", or the industry standard +0.125/-0", HPA can quote most of your cut tolerance needs. Our waterjets and cold band saw offer a wide variety of options and tolerances that will meet your needs for a non-heat affected zone. Or if you're looking for a more economical route, we also offer HD plasma, shear, or chop saw cuts as applicable. Whether your issue is kerf, tolerances, or heat affected zones, HPA has a cut option for you. For more on our standard cut tolerances, please see our guide FM-75-37, "Shop Standard Cut/Grind Tolerances." For more waterjet cutting, visit our sister company Hoosier Waterjet.

Value Added Services and Shipping

HPA offers a wide variety of value added services for our varying material forms from coil, sheet, plate, hex, and flat bar to wire, round bar, weld rod including MIG and TIG, and many forgings of different shapes. HPA can also quote your bar boring needs, cold working for elevated mechanicals, and conversion services to reduce or enlarge diameters to your required size. We also have heat treatment options up to 2300 degree Fahrenheit (~1260 deg. Celsius) in-house. And when your material arrives to your warehouse, we believe your receiving team will be impressed with the quality and integrity of our packaged shipments including a copy of your Material Test Reports emailed to you to ensure conformity and reduce down time due to paperwork.

This is not an exhaustive list of services HPA can quote. If you are looking for an option not listed, please check with our sales team to see if we can offer you a solution. We try our best to quote every job requiring Nitronic: N60, N50, N40, and N30. Also, we often have options for many of your common nickel alloy needs: 200/201, 400/R405, K500, 600/601, L605 (HS 25), 625, alloy X (HX), C276, and 718.
