I was just curious because when I go to look it up on google it gives me info on how nickel chrome is used for electrical wire but no real info on how strong the alloy is or what other properties it has. As to the alloy, I don't know because there are variations. Basically nickel chrome could either be 80% nickel and 20% chromium or 90/20. You see I didn't even know that it was called nichrome. I got it from here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nichrome .

Thanks guys. I appreciate the advice, that's what I'll do.

I know that but does nickel chrome have the strength of inconel 718?

Hi, I have a couple of questions about nickel chrome alloys. How similar is nickel chrome to inconel 718? I'm looking for a metal that can withstand extremely high temps, huge amounts of wear and tear and still be weldable. Would a nickel chrome alloy be suitable? Thank You.
