American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Current edition approved Dec. 1, 2006. Published January 2007. Originally approved in 1996. Last previous edition approved in 2003 as B 872 – 96 (2003). 7 p. This specification covers rolled precipitation hardenable nickel-iron-chromium-columbium (Nb)-titanium-aluminum alloy (N09908) plate, sheet, and strip in the annealed condition (temper). This alloy is used as sheathing for super conductor cables, as tooling for fabrication of such cables, and for other applications requiring a material with low coefficient-of-expansion properties.
