George Metals in Houston, USA, is a reputable manufacturer and supplier of Invar 36 Bars and Rods, offering high-quality nickel–iron alloy products that are custom-designed for use in ultra-low thermal expansion applications. These bars and rods are produced to ASTM F1684 and UNS K93600 specifications and find application in aerospace, cryogenics, electronics, and metrology where dimensional stability and precision are paramount. George Metals provides custom sizes, close tolerances, and technical support to produce the best material performance. Quick turnaround with quality check makes them a desirable supplier for industries of high precision on a global scale.
Invar 36 Bars and Rods contain about 36% nickel and 64% iron, along with trace amounts of manganese, silicon, and carbon. This alloy provides Invar 36 with its characteristic property: a very low coefficient of thermal expansion—approximately 1.2 × 10⁻⁶/°C between 20°C and 100°C. The alloy has a tensile strength of approximately 490 MPa, yield strength of roughly 240 MPa, and elongation close to 40–42% in the annealed condition. It is very machinable, weldable, and has very good dimensional stability even at cryogenic temperatures. Invar 36 is also non-magnetic at low temperatures and resists deformation under thermal stress.
