L-605, AMS 5759

L605 is a cobalt-chromium-tungston-nickel alloy. It has good formability, high strength to 1500°F, and good oxidation resistance to 2000°F. L605 is non-magnetic and have excellent resistance to hot and corrosive atmospheres. It is especially resistant to carburizing atmospheres up to 1600ºF. Common applications are jet engine components land based gas turbine combustor liners.

The high chromium content makes it resistant to corrosion in a wide range of environments such as wet chlorine, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. For maximum ductility, fabricated components should be annealed 2150-2250°F followed by a rapid cooling.
