AMS 5715 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy built for applications needing a material that is resistant to heat and corrosion. Its resistance to high-temperature oxidation is its most important feature but the alloy is also known for its high mechanical strength and good resistance to aqueous corrosion. Applications for AMS 5715 include trays, baskets and fixtures used in various heat treatments such as carburizing and carbon nitriding. The alloy is also used in petrol engine applications.
